HB 3155 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the disclosure of fees by certain landlords in residential rental application transactions.

HB 3155 requires landlords who lease five or more residential properties to list all fees upfront when providing rental applications. This includes application fees (like deposits and processing), recurring lease fees (such as pest control or trash collection), and optional service fees (like pet or parking fees). Applicants cannot be charged for any fee not disclosed in this list, and landlords who violate this rule must refund the undisclosed fee amount. The law applies only to larger landlords and takes effect September 1, 2025.
