Limits landlords to one application fee per tenant every 12 months.
New Hampshire HB1375 amends RSA 540-A:3 to prohibit landlords from collecting more than one application fee from the same prospective tenant within any 12-month period. The bill defines "application fee" to include fees for background checks, credit checks, or administrative costs. This change aims to protect tenants from excessive fees when applying for rental properties. The act will take effect 60 days after its passage.
