Kansas offers more than just delicious barbecue and charming small towns. As the population continues to grow, home values are projected to rise by 3.8% in the coming year, making it an excellent time to consider investing in rental properties. With a low unemployment rate, rich history, strong sports teams, and warm midwest hospitality, Kansas stands out as a prime destination for those looking to relocate.

Laws that impact the rental market, landlords, and tenants are constantly being decided in states. Make sure you know what’s on your ballot – find Kansas voting information here.

When it comes to Kansas rental laws, there are a few specifics landlords need to know:

  1. Security Deposits – Landlords must return the security deposit within 30 days of a tenant moving out. Tenants may also request the security deposit be returned within 14 days. If landlords do not return the deposit before this time, then they may be required to pay up to 1.5 times the amount.

  2. Rent – Kansas has no legal maximum for what a landlord may charge for rent. There is also no limit on the amount a landlord may raise the rent, but they must provide at least 30 days’ notice. Kansas does not limit how much a landlord may charge as a late fee.

  3. Notice for Entry – Kansas requires the landlord to provide notice before entering the rental property, although the exact amount of time is not specified.

  4. Making Repairs – It is the landlord’s responsibility to keep the rental in safe and healthy living conditions. If the landlord fails to do so, the tenant may deliver them a written notice of what needs to be repaired or replaced. The landlord must make the repairs within a reasonable timeframe, though the exact time is not specified by law.

Kansas Landlords’ Rights and Tenant Responsibilities

  • Tenants must keep the property in safe and habitable conditions

  • Must notify landlord 30 days before terminating a lease

  • No limit for late fees

Rental Application Fees

​There are no additional rental application fee laws in Kansas.

Criminal Background Check

  • HUD (Federal) laws do not classify criminal backgrounds as a protected class, but making a decision to rent based on a criminal background alone could lead to a discrimination charge as it impacts certain protected groups of people disproportionately.

  • However, if the criminal background check revealed a crime for the manufacture and distribution of drugs, homicide and/or stalking, denying the application is allowed.

  • Landlords should have a consistent and equal policy or procedure in place to follow regarding criminal background checks so as not to discriminate against one class of people over another.

  • HUD states that a landlord cannot ask about arrest records, only convictions, as innocent people are commonly arrested though the situation may not have resulted in a conviction.

  • Some municipalities may have written their own laws expanding onto what you can and cannot ask regarding criminal backgrounds during the tenant screening process.

Security Deposits

  • Landlords can collect up to one month’s rent as the security deposit for unfurnished units and 1.5 month’s rent for a furnished unit. Landlords can charge an extra ½ month’s rent if pets are allowed.

  • If a security deposit is collected, landlords must provide a written move-in inspection report to create a written record.

  • Landlords must return the security deposit either:
    14 days after the landlord determines deductions (other than for rent).
    30 days after the lease term ends and the tenant vacates the unit.

Notice Before Entry

Landlords must provide a “reasonable” amount of notice before entering the unit, which is usually 24 hours.

Repairs

Landlords must provide a “reasonable” amount of notice before entering the unit, which is usually 24 hours.
