AN ACT concerning the residential landlord and tenant act; requiring
certain disclosures be made to prospective tenants; providing
restrictions on fees for the late payment of rent.
Be it enacted by the Legislature of the State of Kansas:
Section 1. (a) A landlord may charge a reasonable late fee for the late
payment of rent as set forth in a rental agreement. Such fee shall:
(1) Not exceed 5% of the amount of the periodic rent;
(2) not be increased based upon a late fee that was previously
imposed; and
(3) only be charged after the tenant is allowed a minimum of five
days after the date that the rent is due to remit payment.
(b) Before a landlord accepts an application fee or any other payment
from a prospective tenant, the landlord shall disclose, in writing, as part of
the application or a written summary to the prospective tenant:
(1) A good faith estimate of the rent amount and the amount of each
fixed, non-rent expense that is part of the rental agreement;
(2) the type of each use-based, non-rent expense that is part of the
rental agreement;
(3) the day on which the dwelling unit is scheduled to be available;
and
(4) the criteria that the landlord will consider in determining the
prospective tenant's eligibility as a tenant in the dwelling unit, including
criteria related to the prospective tenant's criminal history, credit, income,
employment or rental history.
(c) (1) If a landlord violates subsection (a), the tenant or prospective
tenant shall be released from any rental agreement that was signed,
without penalty.
(2) If a landlord violates subsection (b):
(A) The tenant or prospective tenant shall be released from any rental
agreement that was signed, without penalty; and
(B) the landlord shall return to a prospective tenant any money that
was paid to the landlord related to the dwelling unit including any
application fee, security deposit or rent, and shall pay a penalty to the
prospective tenant in an amount equal to the total amount of money paid to
the landlord related to the dwelling unit.
