Description

In this episode of The Rent Perfect Podcast, CEO David Pickron and co-host Scot Aubrey break down one of the most overlooked legal requirements in property management — the Adverse Action Letter.

When you deny a rental applicant due to credit, income, criminal history, or false information, federal law requires that you send an adverse action notice. Skip it, and you could face penalties up to $11,000 plus attorney’s fees.

David and Scot explain:
*What an adverse action letter is and when to send one.
*Why it protects both you and your applicants.
*How the Fair Credit Reporting Act affects landlords.
*The easiest way to generate one instantly using RentPerfect.
What to do if you’re not yet a Rent Perfect user (hint: email us for a free sample)

Whether you manage one property or one hundred, this episode will help you stay compliant, professional, and protected.
