Texas Parking & Storage Addendum

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

Rent, late fees & returned payments

Texas is one of the few states with a precise late-fee statute. A late fee is only collectible if notice of it is in a written lease, it is reasonable, and rent has remained unpaid two full days after the due date (§92.019(a)).

  • Safe-harbor cap — A fee is presumed reasonable if it doesn’t exceed 12% of one month’s rent for a dwelling in a structure with four or fewer units, or 10% for a structure with more than four. A higher fee must be justified by the landlord’s actual uncertain damages (§92.019(a-1)).
  • Initial + daily fees — A lease may combine an initial fee with a daily fee, but the two together count as a single late fee against the cap (§92.019(b)).
  • Penalty — An unlawful late fee costs the landlord $100, three times the fee collected, and the tenant’s attorney’s fees; any lease waiver of these rules is void (§92.019(c)–(d)).
  • Returned payments — The processing fee for a dishonored check or electronic payment is capped at $30 (Tex. Bus. & Com. Code §3.506).
  • Cash rent — A landlord must accept cash unless the written lease requires another method, and must give a written receipt for cash (§92.011).
  • Rent increases — Texas has no rent-increase notice statute. A fixed-term lease can’t be changed mid-term without the tenant’s agreement; for a month-to-month tenancy, an increase is effectively an offer of new terms, so landlords give at least the one rental period required to end the tenancy (§91.001).

Landlord entry & access

No Texas statute sets a notice period for landlord entry — the lease controls. Out-of-state forms often recite a “24-hour rule” as if Texas required it; it doesn’t, but if your lease promises 24 hours’ notice, you are bound by that promise.

What Texas does regulate is lockouts and self-help. A landlord may change the locks for unpaid rent only if the right is in the lease and after advance written notice (5 days by mail or 3 days by hand-delivery or inside-door posting), and must hand over a new key at any hour whether or not the rent is paid (§92.0081). Interrupting a tenant’s utility service is separately restricted (§92.008).

Texas Parking & Storage Addendum FAQs

What is the maximum late fee in Texas?

A late fee can only be charged once rent has been unpaid for two full days after the due date, and must be in a written lease. It’s presumed reasonable up to 12% of monthly rent for a building with four or fewer units, or 10% for larger buildings; initial and daily fees are added together against that cap (§92.019).
