Advanced Reasonable Accommodations
Hoarding, Assistance Animals, etc.
Presented by Tia Politi
Did you know that an applicant can claim disability that requires you to discount some or all of their past credit, criminal or rental history based on a prior addiction? There's a lot to know about reasonable accommodation and what you don't know can get you into hot water. At the end of this course, attendees should be able to identify the types of accommodations or modifications that a disabled person can request, the documentation that can be required from the tenant to confirm the disability-related need, and how to manage disabled tenants who violate the rules.
This class will cover:
What to do when an applicant submits a reasonable accommodation, either at the time of application or after denial.
What is reasonable?
What criminal history can pose a reasonable concern for danger to neighbors, the landlord or the landlord’s agent?
Caregivers, how to screen them and the forms to use to set up their right to occupy with the tenant.
Assistance animals
Hoarding
Mental health issues
Requests to grow or use marijuana
Requests to ignore bad behavior in the unit if the tenant is getting treatment.
Domestic violence and reasonable accommodation
Lease bifurcation
