Kansas Rent Receipt

This Rent Receipt 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.

Kansas rules at a glance

Kansas rules for a Rent Receipt
Late fees	No statutory cap; set by the lease
Security deposit limit	1 month’s rent unfurnished · 1½ months furnished · plus up to ½ month if pets are allowedK.S.A. §58-2550(a)

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)).

Rent, late fees & rent increases

Unless the lease says otherwise, rent is payable at the dwelling unit, at the beginning of each month, without demand or notice (§58-2545(c)). A lease that fixes no definite term creates a month-to-month tenancy — or week-to-week for a roomer paying weekly rent (§58-2545(d)).

Late fees — Kansas sets no statutory dollar or percentage cap on late fees. The amount and grace period are whatever the lease states, so they need to be written in to be enforceable.
Rent increases — There’s no separate statutory notice period for raising rent. A fixed-term lease can’t be raised mid-term unless it allows it; a month-to-month tenancy can be changed with the same 30 days’ notice needed to end it (§58-2570(b)).
Rent control — No county, city, or township may enact or enforce an ordinance controlling the rent charged for privately owned residential property (§12-16,120).

Kansas Rent Receipt 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)).

Is there a cap on late fees in Kansas?

No. Kansas has no statutory late-fee limit, so the amount and grace period are whatever the lease states. Put the terms in writing so they’re enforceable.
