Utah rental application rules to know
- •Before charging any application fee or taking your application, a Utah landlord must give you a written disclosure listing the rent, any non-rent fees, the date the unit will be available, the screening criteria used (such as credit, income, employment, rental, and criminal history), and how to get money back if you decide not to proceed (§ 57-22-4).
- •Utah does not cap application fees, and there is no separate receipt statute beyond that written disclosure.
- •Any deposit the landlord intends to keep must be identified as nonrefundable in writing at the time the deposit is taken; otherwise it is treated as refundable (§ 57-17-2).
- •Utah sets no cap on the amount of a security deposit.
- •After you move out and return possession, the landlord must return the deposit with a written itemization of deductions within a flat 30 days (§ 57-17-3).
- •Source of income is a protected class under the Utah Fair Housing Act, so a landlord cannot reject you just because part of your income is public assistance, disability, or a subsidy; however, Utah law does not force landlords to accept the federal Section 8 voucher program, and declining to participate in it is not treated as discrimination (§ 57-21-5).
- •Utah protects more classes than federal law, including sexual orientation and gender identity (§ 57-21-5).
- •Utah has no statewide fair-chance housing law, so landlords may ask about criminal history; blanket 'no felons' policies can still create Fair Housing Act disparate-impact liability.

Frequently asked questions
What must a Utah landlord tell me before I pay an application fee?
Under § 57-22-4 they must give you a written disclosure first, covering the rent, any non-rent fees, when the unit will be available, the criteria they will screen you against (credit, income, employment, rental, and criminal history), and how you can recover money if you decide not to move forward. They cannot take your application or fee before providing it.
Are application fees or deposits refundable in Utah?
A deposit is refundable unless the landlord identifies it as nonrefundable in writing when it is taken (§ 57-17-2). Application fees are commonly nonrefundable, and their refund process runs through the pre-fee written disclosure required by § 57-22-4.
Is there a limit on security deposits in Utah?
No. Utah sets no cap on the deposit amount. After you move out and return possession, the landlord must return your deposit and a written list of any deductions within a flat 30 days (§ 57-17-3).
Can a Utah landlord refuse my Section 8 voucher?
Source of income is protected under the Utah Fair Housing Act, and the statutory definition expressly includes federal rental assistance, so you cannot be rejected simply for receiving public assistance, disability income, or a Section 8 voucher (§§ 57-21-2, 57-21-5).
Can Utah landlords ask about criminal history?
Yes. Utah has no fair-chance housing law, so criminal-history questions are lawful. Blanket bans can still create Fair Housing Act disparate-impact liability, and arrests that never led to conviction are risky grounds for denial.
Does Utah protect against source-of-income or LGBTQ housing discrimination?
Yes to both. The Utah Fair Housing Act (§ 57-21-5) lists source of income, sexual orientation, and gender identity among its protected classes, on top of the federal categories of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, familial status, and disability.
