Introduced Text

Missouri HB2917 establishes a bill of rights for senior tenants, mandating specific landlord responsibilities.

Missouri HB2917 amends Chapter 192 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri by adding a new section, 192.2160, which outlines the senior tenant bill of rights. This law defines "older adult" as individuals aged sixty or older. It requires landlords leasing to older adults to provide written lease agreements, notify them of contact with the adult protective services hotline, honor lease terms, maintain safe living conditions, disclose all fees, and adhere to clear guidelines for rent increases. Any suspected violations can be reported.
