Read article above on the history of fair housing and how it was all started. We as Realtors should protect our clients daily and abide by all fair housing rules, not to mention it is the right thing to do even if there were no rules.

Please be aware of the seven protected classes and share with others the importance of fair housing and keep abreast of all existing laws and changes in your office and makes sure all your agents know the stiff penalties enforced when violating these acts.
