Texas: Rent Increase Notice Requirements

Draft data. This entry has not completed statute verification. Confirm against the cited statute before relying on it.

The rule

Minimum notice30 days
StatuteTex. Prop. Code § 91.001 (read it yourself)

No rent-increase-specific statute; § 91.001 is the month-to-month termination provision, and changing terms (like rent) requires the same 30-day notice. Fixed-term leases: at renewal per lease terms.

Rules are reviewed quarterly and cite the statute so you can check them yourself.

Common questions

Does email count as legal notice in Texas?
Often not — many statutes and leases require written notice by mail or personal delivery, and certified mail is the standard way to prove it. Check your lease and the statute cited above.

How do I prove the notice was sent?
Keep the letter, the mailing date, and delivery evidence. NoticeDept archives the exact PDF mailed, USPS scan events, and certified tracking/signature receipts automatically.

What if I get the notice period wrong?
An improperly noticed action can be delayed or dismissed, restarting the clock. The generator applies the Texas rule above and cites the statute in the letter.
