An Act relative to small landlords

This bill allows small landlord limited liability companies (LLCs) owning 10 or fewer residential units to be represented in Massachusetts housing court by their officers or managers - even if those individuals aren't licensed attorneys. It specifically applies to LLCs formed under Chapter 156C of Massachusetts law. The provision clarifies that separate LLCs sharing officers/managers count as one entity for determining the 10-unit limit. This change streamlines representation for small landlords in housing court proceedings without requiring attorney representation.
