Life & Work
Small landlords who own five or more rental units would face a new federal requirement barring them from refusing to rent to veterans with housing vouchers. While the provision does not apply to the smallest landlords (under five units), those just above the threshold would face new compliance obligations and reduced discretion in tenant selection.
“An owner of 5 or more rental dwelling units may not refuse to lease any available unit to a holder of a voucher the funds for which are appropriated pursuant to this paragraph because of the status of the prospective tenant as a holder of such voucher.”
