A Louisiana rental application is used by landlords or property managers to organize the required information an applicant must present when applying for a rental. Landlords will want to find the best possible candidate to rent a property. However, without a standardized form, they can quickly become overburdened. This form will remedy the situation nicely. Potential candidates should be aware that providing their signature on the application will give the property manager permission to run a criminal background and credit check on the applicant.
Laws
- Application Fee – There is no maximum to the amount that may be charged for an application fee (no statute).
- Security Deposit – Louisiana has no limits when it comes to the amount that landlords can charge their tenants (no statute).
