Warren Tenant Screening FAQs
Contact us anytime for assistance. Note: We are unable to offer legal advice. For specific landlord-tenant matters, please consult an attorney.
Are rental application fees allowed in Warren?
Michigan does not have a cap on application fees. However, the amount must be reasonable and reflective of the screening cost. Some landlords choose to keep fees low to remain competitive in the rental market.
Can landlords in Warren deny applicants based on criminal history?
Landlords can consider criminal background information, but they must comply with fair housing laws. Blanket policies that automatically disqualify applicants with any criminal history may violate HUD guidelines. Best practices include evaluating factors such as the nature of the offense, how long ago it occurred, and its relevance to tenancy.
