The purpose of the "End Junk Fees for Renters Act" is to protect tenants from unfair fees that landlords might charge when renting a home. It aims to create a fairer rental market by prohibiting certain fees that can burden tenants financially. Key provisions of the Act include several important rules for landlords. First, landlords cannot charge application fees when someone applies to rent a unit. Second, they are prohibited from collecting fees for tenant screening or background checks.
