Bill Summary

Landlord nexus. Provides that, after June 30, 2025, a landlord may not manage a rental property in Indiana unless the landlord: (1) is authorized to do business in Indiana; (2) maintains an office at one or more physical locations in Indiana; or (3) appoints an Indiana licensed real estate broker or broker company to manage the rental property.

AI Summary

This bill establishes new requirements for landlords managing rental properties in Indiana, effective July 1, 2025. Specifically, after June 30, 2025, a landlord will be prohibited from managing a rental property in Indiana unless they meet one of three criteria: (1) they are authorized to do business in Indiana, meaning they have obtained the necessary legal permissions to operate a business within the state; (2) they maintain a physical office location or locations within Indiana; or (3) they appoint an Indiana-licensed real estate broker or broker company to manage the rental property on their behalf. The bill defines "landlord" using the existing definition in IC 32-31-3-3 and aims to ensure that out-of-state or non-resident property owners have a substantive connection to the state when managing rental properties. This legislation appears designed to provide more local accountability and oversight in the rental property management sector.
