First reading: referred to Committee on Judiciary
Summary
The bill would obligate landlords to maintain rental units free of pests, mold, and rot, and to fix or replace essential systems—like electricity, plumbing, heating, and doors—within three days of a tenant’s notice. Tenants would follow a written request process, and could escrow rent with the court if repairs aren’t made. After June 30 2026, landlords could only manage Indiana rentals if they are authorized to do business in the state, have a physical office, or use a licensed real‑estate broker.
