HB 2504 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to fees charged by certain property owners' associations for resale certificates and updates of resale certificates.

HB 2504 caps fees that homeowners' associations (HOAs) can charge for resale certificates and updates when selling property. It limits the fee for preparing and delivering a resale certificate to $375 and for updating it to $75, while prohibiting additional charges for inspections or other related activities. This directly affects homeowners in HOA-managed communities who buy or sell property, as these certificates are required for sales transactions. The bill takes effect September 1, 2025, ensuring standardized, transparent costs for these essential documents.
