Humble does not require residential rental property registration. Texas does not mandate municipal rental registries. Landlords must comply with Texas Property Code requirements including providing tenant notice information and maintaining habitable conditions. No annual registration fee or inspection program exists.
Humble does not operate a rental property registration program. There is no requirement for landlords to register rental units with the city or pay a registration fee. Texas does not have a state mandate for municipal rental registries. Landlords must comply with Texas Property Code Chapter 92, which requires providing tenants with the name and address of the property owner and management company, maintaining the property in a habitable condition, and complying with security device requirements. Landlords must install smoke detectors and provide working locks. The city's general code enforcement and property maintenance standards apply to rental properties the same as owner-occupied homes. Tenants who experience code violations in rental properties may file complaints with Code Enforcement at (281) 446-4331.
Since no registration program exists, there are no registration-related violations. Rental properties must still comply with all building codes and property maintenance standards. Landlords who fail to maintain habitable conditions may face tenant remedies under Texas Property Code Section 92.056 including repair-and-deduct.
