150: Fair Housing: What You Need to Know

This topic can be a bit overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. In 1968 the Fair Housing Act, also called Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968 was signed into federal law. As a Realtor it is our duty to protect homeownership for anyone that wants to achieve it. In this episode we share exactly who is protected by the Fair Housing Act. We discuss best practices and systems to make sure you are working within the law. We also get specific on how to handle things like buyer love letters, buyer requests for safety or school information, and how to keep your marketing legal. This topic is as important today as it was when the law first passed and one you can’t afford to ignore.
