New Tenant Screening Laws in Minneapolis, soon coming to ...

[Reinaldo Lopez]

I got this from Avail community ( https://community.avail.co/ )

A new legal update regarding tenant screening was just unanimously passed by the Minneapolis City Council.

• Landlords may not use misdemeanor convictions older than 3 years for screening tenants
• Landlords may not use felony convictions older than 7 years for screening tenants
• Landlords may not use other worse convictions older than 10 years for screening tenants (I’m foggy on exactly what that means though)
• Credit Score may not be used as a criteria to approve/deny a prospective tenant   ...WHAT!!!!!!
• Security deposits are now capped at one-month’s rent

What do you think of these changes?
