Kansas legal context

Kansas's Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (K.S.A. §§ 58-2540 to 58-2573) governs most residential rentals. Security deposits are capped at one month's rent for unfurnished units (one and a half months for furnished, plus pet deposits) and must be returned within 30 days. Kansas requires a three-day nonpayment cure-or-quit notice. No statewide rent control.
