New rules related to screening tenants with pets and emotional support animals aim to reduce confusion for landlords and brokers. By issuing new rules, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Ben Carson intends to reduce the ambiguity around proper documentation for assistance animals while helping address the concerns of hosing providers. Wolves, Aardvarks, Rabbits & Ocelot’s are just some of the animals encountered by past brokers, landlords and prospective tenants.
