We Do Business in Accordance With the Federal Fair Housing Act
Federal anti-discrimination laws protect individuals from housing discrimination. It is illegal to discriminate based on certain protected characteristics, which include, but are not limited to: race, religion, color, national origin, sex, disability and family status. You may also be granted additional rights and protections under state law.
We fully support the protections granted by the Fair Housing Act and federal, state and local fair housing and anti-discriminatory laws that protect our communities when they engage in housing-related activities.
Anyone who feels they have been discriminated against may file a complaint of housing discrimination with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.If you live in the following areas/states: | Call the toll-free telephone number |
