Fair Housing Act

The Fair Housing Act protects people from discrimination when they are in the process of renting or buying a home. The law prohibits discrimination in housing because of race, color, national origin, religion, sex (including gender identity and sexual orientation), familial status and disability.

This law protects prospective renters or homebuyers from discrimination.

If you believe your rights may have been violated, you can file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity.
