More details to this question:
I lived in an apartment complex from June 2014 to September 2014. I had moved from California for my new job, I had found a town house online, seemed like a good complex. When I signed my lease it was not move in ready, multiple things wrong in the townhouse. I reached out to management multiple times and it took them weeks before they could even fix some things and some things were never even fixed! My final straw was when I broke my lease a pipe ruptured into my whole down stairs of my town house and still again maintenance was un responsive. I broke my lease in September and told them I would not pay them anymore money and stated the issues and sent them emails. Never got back to me, months later they sent me to collections. I emailed and wrote them letters 3 times, no response. I told them I'm willing to negotiate a deal and still...nothing. Looking to sue/ for my money back that I paid them for that shitty complex.

I understand your frustration. It will be important to review what you needed repair and how you sent the notice to repair such items. It will be the4 best way to determine your exposure, if any. Items that materially affect physical health and safety is about all a landlord is required to repair. Of course, ruptured pipes fall under that category. The Texas Property Code 92.051 et seq. will contain the proper notice procedures.
