Hi,

Re: posting an "apartment available" ad (with regards to California law). 

----   Is it legal to include minimum credit score requirements in the body of the text that the end users will see?

"Minimum credit score ____. ( insert minimum score in blank).

Thanks so much!

Francis

It's the application, not the lease.
