Hello to anyone investing in Akron OH. During this past election legislation 11 and 12 were passed that will impact all landlords. I encourage everyone to review the legislation that was passed. Akron voters approve Issues 11 and 12 to improve housing access Local charter amendments will eliminate fees, spread out security deposits, treat criminal histories as a protected class. Arielle Kass headshot by Arielle Kass November 3, 2026 Rental properties like The 401 Lofts in downtown Akron, shown here, could be affected by two proposed amendments to the Akron City Charter on the Nov. 3 ballot. Issue 11 seeks to eliminate application fees or other charges for potential renters. It would also allow tenants to spread security deposits out over three or six months. And it would criminalize both collecting application fees and failing to tell renters or prospective renters about their options when it comes to paying a security deposit over time. Issue 12 seeks to make it easier for formerly incarcerated people to find housing. It would add anti-discrimination protections related to housing to Akron’s charter, which governs how the city operates, treating people who have been arrested for or convicted of crimes as a protected class. Discriminating against them in terms of housing would be illegal, as is discriminating against people for their race, gender or sexual orientation.
