Fair Housing is Your Right!
Federal law prohibits housing discrimination based on your race, color, national origin, religion, sex, family status, or disability. If you have been trying to buy or rent a home or apartment and you believe your rights have been violated, you can file a fair housing complaint.
It is illegal to discriminate against any person because of race, age,
color, religion, gender, national origin, family status or a disability:
- in the sale or rental of housing or lots
- in advertised housing
- in financing housing
- in real estate or brokerage services
