Plain English

Section 94.111 of the Texas Property Code establishes that notices and other communications required or permitted under the relevant subchapter may be delivered by e-mail, provided that the tenant and the landlord (or the landlord's agent) have previously exchanged e-mails with one another. The rule also allows a landlord or their agent to designate a specific e-mail address that the tenant must use for this purpose. This provision, effective September 1, 2025, creates a recognized electronic channel for formal communications without eliminating other permissible methods.

For Property Managers

Under Tex. Prop. Code § 94.111, property owners and managers operating manufactured home communities may use e-mail for required or permitted notices once a prior e-mail exchange with a tenant has been established. Compliant operators typically document that prior e-mail communication exists before relying on this channel for formal notices, and they may designate a specific e-mail address—such as a property management inbox—for tenants to direct their communications. Maintaining clear records of sent and received e-mails helps demonstrate that notice was properly delivered under this provision.

For Tenants

Tex. Prop. Code § 94.111 recognizes e-mail as a valid method for sending and receiving notices under this subchapter, but only when you and your landlord or their agent have previously communicated by e-mail. If your landlord designates a specific e-mail address for these communications, that address is the one to use for formal notices sent under this subchapter. Tenants who have questions about whether a particular notice was properly delivered may wish to consult a tenant-rights organization or legal aid provider familiar with Texas manufactured home community law.
