Guidelines and Regulations
The real estate industry is governed by various guidelines and regulations to protect consumers and promote fair housing. These guidelines establish rules that both real estate professionals and consumers must follow to ensure fair treatment in transactions.
Fair Housing Act
The Fair Housing Act, enacted in 1968, is a key legislation that prohibits housing discrimination based on protected characteristics. It applies to a wide range of housing-related activities, including the sale, rental, financing, or advertising of properties.
Key Principles of Fair Housing
To ensure fair housing practices, it is important to be aware of the key principles that guide the industry:
- Equal Opportunity: Fair housing guarantees equal opportunity for all individuals, regardless of their background or protected characteristics.
- Non-Discrimination: Discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, family status, or disability is strictly prohibited.
