Allows landlords to accept reusable tenant screening reports and requires certain notices and disclosures.
This bill amends Michigan's landlord-tenant law to allow landlords to accept reusable tenant screening reports from prospective tenants. If a landlord accepts such a report, they cannot charge a rental application fee. If a landlord declines to accept a reusable report, they may charge a fee of up to $25, which must cover the cost of obtaining a consumer report and the rental application fee. Landlords must inform prospective tenants if they will accept reusable reports.
