Rent control rules in Frisco, TX — also known as rent stabilization or rent cap ordinances — limit annual rent increases and protect tenants from displacement.
Frisco has NO local rent control ordinance. Tex. Local Gov't Code § 214.902 preempts Texas cities from enacting rent control absent a declared disaster-related housing emergency and governor approval. The Frisco Code of Ordinances contains no rent stabilization chapter.
Tex. Local Gov't Code § 214.902 bars Texas cities from enacting rent control unless (1) the governing body finds a housing emergency due to a disaster under Tex. Gov't Code § 418.004 and (2) the governor approves the ordinance. Frisco has made no such finding. Month-to-month landlords may raise rent on one month's notice under Tex. Prop. Code § 91.001; fixed-term rent is locked until renewal. Tex. Prop. Code Ch. 92 still applies: 30-day security deposit return (§ 92.103), repair-and-deduct (§§ 92.056–92.0563), and § 92.331 anti-retaliation rule.
No city overage exists. A retaliatory rent increase — within six months of a protected tenant act — triggers a civil penalty of one month's rent plus $500 plus actual damages, court costs, and attorney fees under Tex. Prop. Code § 92.333.
