Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Tex. Gov't Code § 2306.929, property owners or managers subject to the applicable licensing requirement should be aware that the board-set license fee cannot legally exceed $250. Compliant operators typically verify the current fee amount directly with the board before submitting any license application or renewal. Keeping documentation of fee payments helps demonstrate adherence to the board's established schedule.

Tex. Gov't Code § 2306.929 limits the license fee a board may impose to no more than $250, which can be relevant context when evaluating whether a housing provider is operating under a properly issued and paid-for license. Tenants who have questions about whether a property is appropriately licensed may consider contacting the applicable state board or a local tenant-rights organization for general information. Raising licensing compliance as part of a broader housing complaint is one path some tenants explore when concerns arise.
