By overall average: RentCafe cites $1,606/month (June 2026, up 0.41% YoY); Zumper cites $1,799 (February 2026, down 2% YoY). By bedroom count: RentCafe cites $1,388 for a one-bedroom (773 sq ft) and $1,691 for a two-bedroom (1,118 sq ft); Rentometer cites $1,412 (1BR) and $1,789 (2BR); Rent.com cites $1,347 for a one-bedroom. The spread across these trackers is wide enough that it likely reflects differences in unit mix, methodology, and exact month sampled rather than a single clean market rate -- treat any one figure as directional.
Most Common Price Range
One rental-market tracker (RentCafe) reports that 42% of Pearland rentals fall between $1,001 and $1,500 per month -- the single most useful concrete anchor for budgeting purposes, since it describes where most of the actual inventory sits rather than a single average that can be skewed by a smaller number of higher-end listings.
Typical Lease Terms and Tenant Law
Standard 12-month leases are the norm, as in most Texas markets. Texas landlord-tenant law (Chapter 92, Texas Property Code) governs security deposit handling, notice periods, and eviction procedures statewide -- confirm current statutory specifics directly before relying on a general summary.
