Kansas Mold & Mildew Addendum

This Mold & Mildew Addendum is built with Kansas as the governing state. These are the Kansas landlord-tenant rules that most often bear on it, with the statute for each.

Security deposits in Kansas

Kansas is one of the few states whose deposit cap turns on what is in the unit rather than a flat figure. The limit is one month’s rent for an unfurnished unit and 1½ months’ rent where the tenant uses the landlord’s furniture. If the lease lets the tenant keep pets, the landlord may take an additional pet deposit of up to half a month’s rent (§58-2550(a)).

Move-in inventory — Within 5 days of move-in, the landlord (or a representative) and the tenant must jointly inventory the premises and sign a written record of its condition and any furnishings or appliances; the tenant gets a copy (§58-2548).
Return deadline — The landlord may apply the deposit to unpaid rent and damages, itemized in a written notice, and must return the balance within 14 days after determining those charges — and never later than 30 days after the tenancy ends, possession is delivered, and the tenant demands it (§58-2550(b)).
No demand — If the tenant doesn’t ask for the deposit within 30 days of the tenancy ending, the landlord must mail what’s due to the tenant’s last known address (§58-2550(b)).
Penalty — A landlord who doesn’t comply owes the amount due plus damages equal to 1½ times the amount wrongfully withheld (§58-2550(c)).
Last month’s rent — Unless the lease allows it, a tenant can’t use the deposit as the last month’s rent; doing so forfeits the deposit and the landlord can still collect the rent (§58-2550(d)).

Landlord entry & access

A Kansas landlord may enter at reasonable hours, after reasonable notice, to inspect, make repairs, supply services, or show the unit (§58-2557(a)). The statute doesn’t set a specific number of hours, so a clear notice period in the lease (commonly 24 hours) helps show the notice was reasonable.

Entry without consent is allowed only in an extreme hazard involving potential loss of life or severe property damage (§58-2557(b)). The landlord can’t abuse the right of access to harass the tenant; an unlawful or harassing entry lets the tenant seek an injunction or end the lease and recover actual damages (§58-2571(b)).

Kansas Mold & Mildew Addendum FAQs

How much can a landlord charge for a security deposit in Kansas?

One month’s rent for an unfurnished unit, or 1½ months’ rent for a furnished one. If pets are allowed, the landlord may add a pet deposit of up to half a month’s rent (K.S.A. §58-2550(a)).

How long does a landlord have to return a security deposit in Kansas?

Within 14 days after the landlord determines any deductions, and in no event more than 30 days after the tenancy ends, possession is returned, and the tenant asks for it — with an itemized written notice of what was kept. Wrongful withholding costs the landlord 1½ times the amount withheld on top of the deposit (§58-2550(b)–(c)).
