Tenant Screening Kit

Screen applicants fairly and consistently: a rental application, written criteria, an applicant comparison sheet, and the federal adverse action notice.

What's included

  • Rental Application with screening authorization (.docx + PDF)
  • Written Screening Criteria sheet with Fair Housing Act reminders, 42 U.S.C. § 3604 (.docx + PDF)
  • Applicant Comparison Worksheet (.xlsx) with income check formulas
  • Adverse Action Notice built from 15 U.S.C. § 1681m(a) (.docx + PDF)

Beginner tip: Write your criteria before you advertise and use the same rules for every applicant. Many states and cities protect more groups than federal law, so check yours.
