Fair Housing Basics
FREE TO MEMBERS
Fair Housing Enforcement Organizations have received grant funds from the federal government in record amounts, which is leading to more testing and lawsuits impacting multifamily property owners. This course will focus both on the basics of federal fair housing and cover some unique Indiana statutes that differ from other parts of the country, including Indiana’s unique emotional support animal statute, fair housing act, and reasonable occupancy statute.
Course Objectives:
