HB 5759 Michigan House · 2023-2024 Regular Session

Housing: landlord and tenants; form containing summary of tenant's rights; require the department to make available to the public. Amends sec. 57i of 1939 PA 280 (MCL 400.57i).

This bill requires landlords participating in Michigan's rent vendoring program to certify that their rental units are safe, habitable, and free of conditions that could spread disease. It mandates that the state housing department remove landlords from the program if they have unresolved health or safety violations or if they fail to pay property taxes. Additionally, the bill prohibits landlords from evicting tenants solely because the department terminated their participation in the program due to these issues, and it requires the department to make a specific tenant rights form available on its website.
