Kansas HB2454 mandates landlords to accept partial payments and consider all lawful income when evaluating tenant qualifications.

Kansas HB2454 amends the residential landlord and tenant act to require landlords to accept both full and partial payments from tenants. It also mandates that landlords consider all lawful income sources when assessing a tenant's qualifications for housing. Violations of these requirements are deemed deceptive or unconscionable acts under the Kansas consumer protection act, subjecting offenders to additional remedies and enforcement. This act supplements the residential landlord and tenant act.
