Failed·6/9/25
Tpdf Text

Establishes an expedited eviction process for landlords in home-sharing agreements in Maine.

This bill creates a streamlined eviction process for landlords in Maine who participate in home-sharing agreements. A home-sharing agreement is defined as an arrangement between a landlord, who is at least 62 years old and lives in the residence, and a tenant who rents a room. The landlord must provide written notice of eviction and specify the violation of the agreement. The tenant must vacate within a specified number of days, or they will be considered a trespasser. The landlord can then request law enforcement assistance to evict the tenant.
