AN ACT RELATING TO PROPERTY -- RESIDENTIAL LANDLORD AND TENANT ACT

Summary

The bill adds a new requirement to Rhode Island’s Residential Landlord and Tenant Act that landlords provide a written receipt at the time they receive a cash rent payment. The receipt must show the amount paid, the date, the names of the landlord and tenant, and who accepted the money. This aims to protect tenants by creating a clear record of cash transactions.
