It’s important to abide by the law to protect both yourself and your tenants.

 Here’s what you need to know about landlord and tenant rights:

### Federal Landlord and Tenant Rights

Each is enforced by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and ensure that tenants are not discriminated against.

- **The Fair Housing Act (FHA)** - This act aims to ensure that prospective renters, applicants, and current tenants aren’t treated differently due to a specific characteristic- this is known as a protected class. These are the seven FHA protected classes:
- Race
- Color
- Religion
- National origin
- Sex
- Disability
- Familial Status
- **The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA)** - This act regulates how credit bureaus can collect and share information about consumers (tenants).

#### What This Means for Landlords

 Under the FHA guidelines, landlords cannot discriminate against any of the protected classes. Examples of prohibited actions include:

- Advertising for a specific group of people
- Setting different terms or regulations for different people
- Refusal to rent or negotiate housing
- Denying the use of a support dog

 With that said, landlords are legally able to reject applicants and evict or take adverse action against tenants who are protected under the FHA, as long as the reasons are legitimate. In conjunction with knowing the FHA guidelines, landlords should also familiarize themselves with the FCRA as they will most likely check a tenant's credit during the screening process. 

 Under the FCRA, landlords may obtain a consumer report as long as they have permissible purpose. This can be obtained through written permission from the tenant or applicant. It’s important to note that the consumer report can only be used for housing purposes. 

#### What This Means for Tenants

 As a tenant who is in a protected class, specifically with a disability, under the FHA tenants can expect reasonable accommodations (with no extra fees or deposits) from landlords including:

- Having a support dog despite a ‘no pet rule’
- Installed grab bars in the bathroom
- Reserved parking
- A ramp installation

 Additionally, protected classes will not have different rules, regulations, or higher rent than everyone else and they cannot be rejected due to specific characteristics that put them in a protected class. 

 Under the FCRA, landlords are required to give an adverse action notice to rental applicants and tenants if they choose to do any of the following, based on information from the consumer report:

- Require a co-signer on the lease
- Deny the application
- Charge more for a security deposit than other tenants
- Increase monthly rent only for a specific tenant

### State Landlord and Tenant Rights

 When it comes to state laws for landlords and tenants, they typically [vary from one state to the next](https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/state-specific-landlord-legal-responsibilities). Generally, state laws help to regulate common business transactions between landlords and tenants such as:

- Security deposit limits
- Rent increases
- The return of security deposits

 State laws also help to ensure both landlords and tenants are protected with laws that govern:

- A landlords access to rental property
- Violation of the lease agreement
- Evictions

#### What This Means for Tenants

 Similar to landlord laws, tenant laws also [vary by state](https://www.landlordology.com/state-laws/) and work to regulate a tenant’s right to enjoy the full use of their property. It’s important for landlords to be aware of tenant rights, so they can implement best practices to ensure both they and the tenant are abiding by the laws. When entering into a lease agreement, tenants are protected in the following areas:

- The right to a habitable home
- The right to privacy
- The time at which the security deposit will be returned and the reason it may be less

#### What This Means for Landlords

 Since landlords have more at stake when entering into a rental agreement, most states help to protect their investment with clear regulations. Areas most states cover generally involve the following:

- Setting the terms of lease agreements including rent, security deposit, and associated fees
- Accessing the rented property, so long as they have given reasonable notice
- Renewal of a lease agreement
- Performing or scheduling repairs and maintenance
- Setting general procedures, including late fees, tenant screening requirements, and consequences for any breach of the lease agreement
- Evicting tenants

 Evicting tenants, in particular, can be a tumultuous task that can take months, so many states give landlords the freedom to terminate the lease if:

- The tenant fails to pay rent or is consistently late
- The tenant violates lease provisions
- The tenant violates the law

 As we mentioned before, each state’s laws vary even within the same area. For example, in the state of [New York](https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/tenant-defenses-evictions-new-york.html) landlords need to give tenants at least a 14-day notice to evict them for not paying rent. However, [California law](https://www.steadymarketplace.com/blog/what-are-landlord-rights-california) only requires landlords to give a 3-day notice in the same instance. 

 Though laws are in place to ensure landlords can evict a tenant if needed, it does not protect rental income. As noted, if your tenant stops paying rent, each state has a minimum period before you are able to begin the eviction process, which can take months. That’s why securing your income with rent default insurance through companies, like [Steady](https://www.steadymarketplace.com/), is vital. Rent default insurance reimburses you for any lost rent to ensure that you still receive income if your tenant stops paying.

### Get More Protection with Steady

 Federal and state laws help to ensure the fair treatment and safety of landlords and tenants, but they don’t protect your rental income. As a landlord, losing a tenant and the income from their rent payments is a very real possibility — that’s why it’s important to have rent default insurance to fall back on. 

 With [Steady’s rent default insurance](https://www.steadymarketplace.com/), landlords can have peace of mind knowing that they’ll be paid any missed payments from tenants who default on their rent. Landlords can choose from coverage that ranges from 1.5 to 6 months of lost rent — without even worrying about [paying for a deductible](https://www.steadymarketplace.com/blog/rent-default-insurance-deductibles). Let federal and state laws protect your rights and let Steady keep your rental income protected.
