Know Your Rights

All rental properties in the city are subject to the Residential Rental and Lodging Establishment Inspection Program (BMC Title 16), which requires a rental property to be registered with the City of Bloomington, and to be inspected every 3 to 5 years. Each rental property must have a current occupancy permit, issued by HAND. A copy of this permit must be displayed somewhere inside the rental unit.

Every rental property has a file in the HAND department. We invite you to come in and look at the file BEFORE you sign a lease!
