Texas has no statute capping residential rent or requiring advance notice before a rent increase. Amount and timing are governed entirely by the lease. On a month-to-month tenancy a landlord changes rent by serving the one-month notice under Tex. Prop. Code § 91.001. Fixed-term rent is locked until the term ends.
No statutory requirement in Texas limits how much a landlord may raise residential rent or fixes a rent-increase-notice period; statewide rent control is not authorized, and cities may adopt it only after a declared disaster with the governor's approval. The Texas State Law Library confirms "there is not a statewide law that places limits on how much a landlord can increase the rent." During a fixed-term lease the rent cannot change before the term ends unless the lease allows it. On a month-to-month tenancy the landlord raises rent by changing the terms with the one-month notice required under Tex. Prop. Code § 91.001. One limit applies: under Ch. 92 a landlord may not raise rent to retaliate.
No specific statutory penalty. A rent increase imposed on a month-to-month tenant without the one-month notice that § 91.001 requires to change the tenancy is unenforceable until proper notice runs; a retaliatory increase is barred under Tex. Prop. Code Ch. 92.
