Montgomery County has no frequency ordinance for garage sales. Texas Tax Code §151.304(b) provides the occasional sale exemption: an individual may conduct up to two sales per calendar year with gross receipts under $3,000 total before sales tax collection becomes mandatory. Exceeding this threshold triggers sales tax permit requirements through the Texas Comptroller. Conroe and The Woodlands impose no city-level frequency caps. HOA governing documents — Bentwater (2 per year), April Sound (quarterly maximum), Walden, Imperial Oaks — frequently limit to 2 to 4 sales annually. TX HB 2127 (Death Star Act, 2023) preempts many city regulations that would duplicate state occupation rules. Operating more than two non-tax-registered sales yearly risks state tax enforcement, not local citation.
