Warning: Louisville City Council Kentucky is considering ordinance that would make public all owner information on rentals and code enforcement random inspections.  Louisville has been trending landlord unfriendly.  Will let all know if it passes.

My rentals are in different LLC'S so if they published info on a property it wouldn't mean much to me. I do however maintain my properties so it would be unlikely to get on the bad boy list.

Also tenants just want a good place to live they don't research the landlord like we research the tenant.

 I am more worried about the bombardment of solicitors.

I am looking for an update on this but cannot find one.  They also proposed a $100 per year per property registration fee and that landlords have to certify that their property meets city codes.  There would be a $100 fee if you fail to register.  Will update when I have one.  Minimum it would mean that you need to add the costs to your estimates for yearly costs.
