Collecting Fees

Disclosure

If the landlord accepts a screening fee, they must disclose in writing[1]:

  • The criteria used to choose a tenant.
  • The contact information for the tenant screening service that will be used (if any).

If denied, the applicant needs to be informed of the reason why within 14 days of rejection.

 

Prohibited Activity

The landlord cannot collect fees without providing a receipt, nor can they collect fees if there are no rental units available.[2]

 

Returning

The landlord must return any amount of the fee not used to perform a credit report, tenant screening report, or a personal reference check.[3] The fee must also be returned if a prior applicant is given the rental unit or rejected for reasons other than the ones listed in the disclosure criteria.[4]
