Require landlords to accept third-party tenant screening reports
In Plain English
Currently landlords can require each prospective tenant to pay for a new background check, even if they already have a recent report. This law requires landlords to accept screening reports from other approved companies within the past 30 days. If approved, tenants save money by reusing reports when applying to multiple rental properties.
