National Rental Registry Study: Understanding Housing Market Impact

This bill proposes a study to assess the need for and feasibility of establishing a national residential rental registry. The aim is to gather comprehensive data on rental properties, including ownership, rent prices, and accessibility, to better inform housing policy and potentially provide citizens with more transparency regarding rental housing.
Key points
The study will collect data on the size, location, and ownership of rental properties, including whether they are publicly or privately owned, or by large investors.
It will analyze if properties receive tax credits or subsidies, are subject to affordability restrictions, and if there are accessibility issues for people with disabilities.
The study also aims to evaluate how a registry could help identify issues like significant rent increases, habitability concerns, or fair housing complaints.
