Housing Discrimination is Illegal!
If you feel you are being treated unfairly, take the following steps:
Document in writing meetings and phone calls with landlords, property managers, real estate agents, loan officers and insurance agents.
Keep detailed records as to what was said and the outcome.
Save all receipts, copies of applications, business cards and other documents.
