Florida S1626 allows landlords to report tenants' rent payment history to credit agencies with tenant consent.

Florida S1626 creates a process for landlords to report tenants' rent payment history to credit reporting agencies. Landlords must obtain written consent from tenants, detailing benefits and risks. Tenants can opt out at any time. Landlords can charge a fee, up to actual costs, for reporting services. The bill prohibits retaliatory actions against tenants who opt out or fail to pay the fee. It does not apply to landlords of buildings with 15 or fewer units unless they own multiple buildings and meet specific criteria.
