Complaints alleging discrimination based upon disability account for more than half of all reported fair housing complaints. The majority of complaints are due to ignorance of the law, resentment or people thinking they know better than HUD and DOJ. While anyone can request an accommodation or modification based upon a disability, it is up to a multifamily professional to determine if the request is reasonable.
What exactly is “reasonable” – what criteria should we use when evaluating requests? What is a “reasonable alternative?” What are we allowed to ask – and ask for – when determining if a request is reasonable? What do HUD, DOJ and the courts say about our responsibilities and how to meet them? Can we still be sued or be the subject of a complaint even if we do everything correctly? Get the answers to these questions and more in the fast-paced presentation!
