A bill to amend 1978 PA 454, entitled “Truth in renting act,” by amending section 2 (MCL 554.632).
House Bill No. 5384 aims to amend the 1978 PA 454, known as the "Truth in Renting Act," specifically section 2 (MCL 554.632). The bill seeks to redefine the terms "rental agreement" and "residential premises" within the act. A "rental agreement" is defined as a written agreement detailing the terms and conditions for the use and occupancy of residential premises, excluding agreements solely concerning the identity of the parties, premises description, rental period, total rental amount, payment amounts, and payment schedules. "Residential premises" are defined to include various forms of dwelling such as houses, apartments, mobile homes, and multiple-family dwellings, but exclude hotels, motels, motor homes, temporary accommodations for tourists, premises used as the principal residence of the owner and rented out during temporary absences, and residences occupied temporarily by the seller post-sale.
