Prohibits bank investments in bad faith landlords
This bill prohibits state-chartered banks from providing financing or investing in landlords who have engaged in specific serious violations against tenants. It directly affects landlords convicted of tenant harassment, fraud, or financial crimes like embezzlement, or those who entered a court settlement requiring over $1 million in tenant restitution, management takeover, or court monitoring. Banks would be barred from funding these landlords' residential properties or securities. The law applies immediately to all new or modified contracts after enactment, targeting financial support for landlords with documented patterns of harming tenants.
