Oppose HB1346: Legislators want to limit the definition of rent!
Dear Colleagues,
Maryland legislators are aiming to limit the definition of rent in residential leases. This legislation increases financial risk for current landlords and discourages future landlords.
If you are a Maryland resident, Rental Owner/Landlord, or Property Manager, please voice your opposition to HB1346 legislation by signing this petition. It is an attempt to define rent as: fixed and periodic payments, and it explicitly prohibits a landlord from collecting any additional payments due from the tenant as written in the lease, such as utilities owed.
More detail, and unintended consequences can be found in the petition link.
We need to collect as many signatures as possible before March 5th before the hearing on March 7th. Please sign and share this link with as many others you can who may be affected by this.
Please feel to reach out to me if you have any questions.
Thank you,
Brian Wojcik
