Relating to requirements for notice advertising the sale of property to enforce a self-service storage facility lien.
SB 2437 updates Texas law for self-service storage facilities seeking to sell tenants' stored items when rent isn't paid. It requires facilities to advertise sales through specific methods: publishing in a local newspaper for two weeks (with a 15-day wait), posting at the facility and five other locations (10-day wait), or making sales accessible online with at least three bidders (10-day wait). The bill applies only to new storage rental agreements signed on or after September 1, 2025, leaving existing agreements under previous rules. This clarifies notice requirements to ensure tenants have sufficient time to reclaim belongings before sales occur.
