Indianapolis Landlord Registration Begins Jan. 1

INDIANAPOLIS — Beginning January 1, 2015 as part of the Indianapolis Landlord Registration Program, all owners or landlords of rental units will be required to register the properties with the City of Indianapolis Department of Code Enforcement (DCE).   The initial registration period will end March 31, 2015. There will be no enforcement activities during the first three months of the program. The registration form is available online through DCE’s Citizen Access Portal (http://permitsandcases.indy.gov/citizenAccess). Applicants must create a portal user account to access the landlord registration form. Applicants may also register at a kiosk available to the public in the DCE Lobby (1200 S. Madison Ave).
The property owner or a designated property management company can complete the registration form. An individual who owns multiple rental properties may register all properties together and pay one registration fee of $5. A property management company who represents multiple owners must complete a registration form for each owner.
Please note applicants need to enter only the parcel number (not the rental property address). The property address information will be auto populated using the parcel number information.
Please e-mail licensing@indy.gov or call (317) 327-4316 for more information.
