What is housing
discrimination? |
| It is different
treatment given to some home seekers because of
their RACE, RELIGION, GENDER, COLOR, NATIONAL
ORIGIN OR HANDICAP. Giving someone a different
sale or rental price to keep them out of the house
or telling them it's been taken when it's really
available are examples of discrimination. Denying
anyone the use of a real estate broker or suggesting
to a possible habitant of a property that they might
be happy elsewhere are also forms of discrimination. |

|

discrimination. |
