Kansas City MO NEW Source of Income Discrimination Ban Ordinance
22 June 2024 | 17 replies
This ordinance is significant for its comprehensive approach to addressing source-of-income discrimination, particularly in the context of housing and rental opportunities.Key aspects of this ordinance include:The creation of a $1 million Landlord Risk Mitigation Program to financially assist landlords who accept tenants with vouchers, such as Section 8.Establishment of a landlord liaison position within the City’s Housing Department to facilitate communication and support.Landlords are allowed to deny rental applications based on individualized assessments, such as criminal convictions, credit scores, and eviction history, but the ordinance also sets clear guidelines for what can and cannot be considered.It includes a delayed effective date, allowing time for landlords and tenants to adjust to the new regulations.The ordinance also specifies that certain properties, particularly older houses that cannot easily comply with current codes, are exempt from some of the source-of-income requirements.The guidelines provided by Kansas City's Ordinance 231019, detailing what can and cannot be considered in rental applications, include several notable points aimed at balancing the rights and concerns of both tenants and landlords:Individualized Assessment Allowed:Landlords can deny rental applications based on specific, individualized factors, including criminal convictions, credit score, eviction history, alleged damages, and rent-to-income ratio.

@Kenneth Tiedemann you can use personal account, just be sure to follow your state and local laws about security deposits.If you're parents are living in the home with the tenants, then they are also exempt from most Fair Housing requirements, but you should look into them anyways.You'll want a good lease to protect your parents and to be able to evict if/when necessary.Check their home insurance policy as it probably needs at least a rider to cover renting.

Both FNMA and FHLMC permit this, under the following circumstances: Notes: For all such transfers affecting mortgage loans purchased or securitized by Fannie Mae on or after June 1, 2016, the transferee is not required to occupy the propertya limited liability company (LLC), provided thatthe mortgage loan was purchased or securitized by Fannie Mae on or after June 1, 2016, andthe LLC is controlled by the original borrower or the original borrower owns a majority interest in the LLC, and if the transfer results in a permitted change of occupancy type to an investment property, such change does not violate the security instrument (for example, the 12 month occupancy requirement for a principal residence).The servicer must notify the borrower that a property transferred to an LLC must be transferred back to a natural person prior to any subsequent refinance application in order to meet Fannie Mae’s Selling Guide underwriting requirements.Citation: D1-4.1-02: Allowable Exemptions Due to the Type of Transfer (04/13/2022)Now, you will still have the Note and reporting in your name individually and will still be personally responsible for the mortgage and most likely, the manner of transfer will enable any litigant to pierce the veil of your LLC, but you'll have what you wanted, for whatever reason.
