Bill overview
This bill allows landlords to reuse certain tenant screening reports that were prepared within the previous 45 days, making it easier for landlords to assess potential tenants. It outlines specific requirements for landlords regarding providing information to prospective tenants about the screening process, including criteria for denial and the right to a free copy of the report if adverse action is taken. The bill also restricts landlords from using credit scores or certain judicial actions as deciding factors in rental applications and establishes procedures for landlords to follow when taking adverse action against a prospective tenant.
