You can change anything in your lease you want to, as long as YOU BOTH agree to it IN WRITING, with a new date attached to it, and it does not contradict state law. And, yes, you HAVE to follow your state's LL/T laws regarding notices EVERY TIME, if you ever expect to win in court. About your current eviction-----if its for issues he has already fixed, I doubt a judge will grant you an eviction. As for you "might let him stay", that will be up to the judge, not you. If you want him to sign a new lease, offer him a $50 DECREASE in rent, if he will sign one with your terms in it , AND it becomes a MTM lease.

Did you not read my first sentence? BOTH parties (LL and T) have to agree to any changes to a lease, IN WRITING. So, no, YOU cannot amend the lease, but BOTH of you can, no matter what state you are in.

Yes, I realize both of us would have to sign the amended agreement for it to be valid. I was worried that maybe there were certain things that couldnt be added unless it was the original agreement. example.. waiver of 5 day notice. So you are saying yes it is possible to amend no matter what as long as we BOTH agree and sign... this applies for louisiana? are you 100% sure!?
