Is there a specific law that allows landlords to put a restriction on the number of days am overnight guest can stay? I have been researching for hours and can't find any case law or statue. Help! (In Texas)

It's not a statute, it's just a contract term that's agreed to in the lease (if it's there).

I can’t why something like that would be unenforceable? It’s not like it’s a right to keep a family or something (there’s caselaw about housing discrimination prohibiting non-nuclear families, etc.) but this is a guest policy. If someone is staying long term, but then on the lease.

So it is, but everyone is telling my client (the lessor) that despite it being in the lease, it's unenforceable. So I'm being asked to write memo as to why is valid and enforceable. I was hoping to find some case law.

There are many ways to approach this. There are statutes about how many non family members may be in residence w/ x bedrooms. The lease states who the residents are, guest not there. Less term about #days agreed to like any other lease term.

Hi
I have received an offer from a company and I'm in the second stage of interviews with another company. I am very interested to see if I could make it through for the second company. So can I accept the offer from first company and then if second one also sends an offer then let the first company know I would like to reject? Also i am on H1B visa. Should I be concerned with that?

Any advice on shifting from association law to commercial real estate in FL?

I've been applying to jobs for months but every position wants at least 2yrs of experience in real estate transactions, usually way more. I'm at 1yr+ doing HOA/condo work but have had no opportunity to do real estate transactions like I expected. Seems like the only way to get the experience is to have nailed a big law gig right out of school and get put into that practice.

A client developer group just told me they reached terms to “buy equity in a lease.” From what they’ve told me, if we were setting this up fresh, I’d do a new LLC and easily handle capital contributions, buy-sell, etc. in the new LLC agreement. However, here the partner had a long-term lease on the underlying RE that our group wants to develop as a concept. Lease assignment to new LLC is dicey, but I’m thinking maybe we set up a Mgmt services company to contract w/ the partner-tenant entity?
