The proposed bill establishes a new section, 83.471, in the Florida Statutes, which pertains to reusable tenant screening reports. It defines key terms such as "consumer report," "consumer reporting agency," and "reusable tenant screening report." The bill authorizes landlords to accept these reusable reports, which must be prepared within the last 30 days and provided at no cost to the landlord. Additionally, landlords can require applicants to confirm that there have been no material changes to the information in the report. The reusable tenant screening report must include specific information, such as the applicant's full name, contact details, employment verification, last known address, eviction history, and the date through which the information is current.

Furthermore, the bill prohibits landlords from charging applicants any fees for accessing the reusable tenant screening report or for application screening. It clarifies that the new regulations do not affect existing laws regarding the consideration of criminal history in housing decisions and do not mandate landlords to accept these reports. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
