Resources for Landlords

Landlord & Tenant Disputes

For landlord and tenant matters, please refer to the Maryland Attorney General's Office.

Inspections

All licensed rental properties are subject to an inspection every three years. Please refer to the Inspection Checklist Key to ensure that your property is up to code. Rental housing inspections are conducted by the City's on-staff Rental Housing Inspector, who is certified through the International Code Council.

Lead Inspections

The Maryland Department of the Environment requires that landlords have a lead inspection prior to a new tenant moving in to the unit. For more information about lead test requirements, click here.
