The comprehensive guide was developed to encourage positive relationships between landlords and tenants. It covers information on fair housing, things to consider before renting, the application to rent, the lease, before you move in, tenants’ rights & responsibilities, repairs & the implied warranty of habitability, security deposit, rent increases, utility shut offs, falling behind on rent, and eviction. 

It will help to guide you through a successful renting experience by providing general information and law as it pertains to the rental of a residential property. Keep in mind that you may have rights available to you if you own a manufactured house or lease a commercial space that are different than the rights discussed in the guide.
