How Tenants With Service Animals Are Protected With Fair Housing Laws
|
|
|
The Fair Housing laws of this country are designed to protect consumers from many types of discrimination or being taken advantage of by individuals in the real estate related trades. Therefore, these laws create responsibilities that are expected to be respected in the practice of real estate. The Federal government is on the front line of enforcement and all the states provide their own set of laws also.
You may be surprised to learn that having a pet may be protected under the Fair Housing laws. Some owners of private property believe they can create a “no pets” policy and be exclusive of all owners of any kind of pet. What happens if an applicant for a home informs the owner or manager, they have a “service animal”? It is important that everyone recognizes that the applicants right to bring a service animal into a property that is strictly “no pets” is protected under the Fair Housing laws.
