A letter from a Indiana-licensed mental health professional is the documentation behind a reasonable accommodation request — the step that lets a renter ask to set aside a no-pet rule, pet rent and pet deposits.
With roughly 116,000 residents, Evansville in Vanderburgh County is Indiana’s third-largest city. Renters across Downtown Evansville, Riverside Historic District, Haynie's Corner Arts District, Franklin Street and Newburgh rely on the same fair housing protections, whatever the building or landlord.

Most people are seen the same day, and if you’re approved the signed letter arrives within 10-15 minutes.
