A New Home for Owners

We've moved.

The Livable City Initiative has launched a brand-new owner portal — more interactive, easier to use, and built for the way landlords actually work in 2026. You'll find every license, inspection, and notice for every property you own, all on one timeline.

You will need to register a new account the first time you visit. If the Residential Licensing Program already has your email on file for a property you own, your properties will automatically appear in your dashboard the moment you sign up — no claim form, no waiting.

What you can do here

Everything you need to run a rental property in New Haven, in one civic portal.

01

Apply for a license

Submit your residential rental business license application online. Pay the registration fee by card or mail in a check — we'll keep you posted by email.

02

Track inspections

See upcoming inspection dates, results, and any required follow-ups. Every notice the City sends lives on your case timeline.

03

Pay & stay compliant

Settle balances, renew on time, and view a clean record of every fee, citation, and hearing — all the way back to your first filing.
