Relating to restrictions on residential leasing in property owners' associations.
HB 5407 prohibits property owners' associations (POAs) from banning residential leases of six months or longer in their governing documents. It also prevents POAs from imposing occupancy limits beyond those already established in Texas Property Code Section 92.010. The bill directly affects POAs and homeowners who wish to lease their properties, ensuring associations cannot restrict longer-term rentals or add extra occupancy rules. If passed with a two-thirds vote, it would take immediate effect; otherwise, it would become law on September 1, 2025. This is a substantive policy change affecting rental terms within community associations.
