Bill Summary
As introduced, authorizes a landlord to submit a single registration form for a multi-dwelling property with the agency or department of local government that is responsible for enforcing building codes in the jurisdiction if the property contains five or more dwelling units; authorizes local governments to require residential landlords to register with the local government. - Amends TCA Section 66-28-107.
AI Summary
This bill modifies Tennessee's landlord registration requirements by allowing landlords with multi-dwelling properties containing five or more units to submit a single registration form, provided the required information is consistent across all units. The bill also enables local governments (municipal, metropolitan, or county) to adopt an ordinance or resolution mandating landlord registration, with the ability to specify which types of dwelling units must be registered and set registration fees up to a predetermined amount. Existing local governments already subject to this section as of June 30, 2025, will not need to pass a new ordinance. The legislation provides flexibility for local jurisdictions to implement registration requirements while standardizing the process for larger residential properties. The changes will take effect on July 1, 2025, with the stated purpose of serving the public welfare by potentially streamlining property registration and providing local governments more oversight of residential rental properties.
