On Friday, July 1, NAR sent a coalition letter from housing provider industry groups to the White House, Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Treasury Department, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), and the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau (CFPB), in response to the listening sessions hosted by the White House regarding the Administration’s interest in a renters’ bill of rights. NAR previously sent its own letter summarizing our comments during the call, and this letter provided an opportunity for the housing groups to present a unified voice on the issue. The coalition highlights that a lease is a contractual agreement between housing providers and their residents, and that there are already myriad state and local laws and regulations placed on lease terms, eviction proceedings, and housing provider responsibilities.
