What is Housing Discrimination

 The Fair Housing laws give all individuals the right to live wherever they

 Choose and can afford. It prohibits discrimination based on

Race, Color, Religion, National Origin, Sex, Disability,

(Physical and/or mental) and Familial Status

(Families w/children under the age of 18 years).

The laws prohibit housing providers such as landlords, sellers, lenders, and

insurance agents from discriminating against anyone who has any one of the

protected classes in the purchasing, rental, financing, or insuring of housing.

All types of housing are included, including single family homes, apartments, condominiums, mobile homes, and other dwellings and common areas
