Under a new California Law (AB 2493), housing providers must disclose their tenant screening criteria to rental applicants in writing when an application is requested.

This ensures transparency and allows potential tenants to self-assess their eligibility before paying a screening fee. Clearly spelling out the qualifications for a successful rental applicant can also prevent a costly housing discrimination lawsuit.
