Bill overview
The End Junk Fees for Renters Act aims to protect renters from excessive and unnecessary fees charged by landlords. It directs relevant federal agencies to prohibit fees like application fees, tenant screening fees, and late fees that exceed a certain threshold. The bill also requires landlords to provide clear disclosures about all rental costs and past issues with the property. Finally, it directs consumer protection agencies to define ‘junk fees’ and establish rules against reporting unpaid fees to credit agencies.
