Fair Housing is a right protected by federal and state laws. Fair housing means you may freely choose a place to live without regard to your race, color, religion, sex, national origin or because you are disabled or have children in your family.
Housing discrimination is illegal.
Learn to recognize the signs of discrimination in rental, sales, lending and insurance. Housing discrimination is rarely blatant. It is usually cleverly disguised and, more often than not, is done with a smile and a handshake. You have a right to the housing of your choice. It is illegal for anyone to deny you housing because you have a mental or physical disability, or a record of having had a mental or physical disability, or because people think you have a mental or physical disability.
