HB 2630 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to declarant control of certain property owners' associations.

HB 2630 limits how long a developer (called a "declarant") can control the board of a property owners' association in new residential developments. It requires that by the time 50% of lots are sold to non-developer owners, at least one board member must be elected by those owners; by 75% sales, at least one-third of board members must be elected by non-declarant owners. If the development's declaration doesn't specify total lots, this one-third requirement applies by the fifth anniversary of the declaration. The bill directly affects developers and homeowners in new communities governed by such associations, ensuring owner representation on boards within defined timelines.
