Fair Housing and Reasonable Modifications
Understanding Fair Housing Laws
Fair housing laws are regulations put in place to ensure equal rights and opportunities in housing for all individuals, regardless of their race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin. These laws provide protection against discrimination and promote fair housing practices in the real estate industry.
The Role of Reasonable Modifications
Reasonable modifications are changes made to a dwelling or common areas to accommodate individuals with disabilities. These modifications allow disabled individuals to have equal access to housing and facilities. It is the responsibility of housing providers to allow reasonable modifications, unless they pose an undue financial burden or fundamentally alter the nature of the property.

Common Questions and Concerns
What qualifies as a reasonable modification?
A reasonable modification can include making structural changes to a property, such as installing wheelchair ramps or widening doorways, to accommodate individuals with mobility issues. It can also involve adjustments to policies or procedures, such as allowing guide animals for visually impaired individuals.
Can I request a reasonable modification?
If you have a disability and require a reasonable modification to access our real estate services, we encourage you to contact us. We will work with you to assess your needs and determine the appropriate modifications to ensure equal access and participation.
What if my request for a reasonable modification is denied?
If your request for a reasonable modification is denied, it is important to understand the reasons behind the decision. Housing providers can only deny a request if it poses an undue financial burden or fundamentally alters the property. If you believe your rights have been violated, you can file a complaint with the appropriate fair housing agency.
