SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Admissibility of evidence of damages to rental property. Provides that in a civil action to recover for damages to rented real property, evidence as to such damages may be presented by an itemized estimate or appraisal sworn to by a person who also swears (i) that he is a repairman, estimator or appraiser qualified to determine the amount of such damage; (ii) as to the approximate length of time that he has been engaged in the business of doing such repair work; and (iii) as to the trade name and address of his business and employer. Currently, expert testimony may be required to overcome a hearsay objection to written estimates.
