FAQ

Which family is NOT protected under the familial status provisions of the Fair Housing Act? The answer is a 55-year-old father, 40-year-old mother, and 17-year-old son who want to purchase a home in an age-restricted adults-only community.

While tenants cannot unreasonably deny access to a landlord, landlords must also follow all of the state and local rules regarding access to tenants' apartments. Roughly half of states have rules governing landlord entry into tenants' apartments.

Yes, there are four important exceptions to the Fair Housing Act: Single family homes, as long as the home is also rented or sold by the owner, the owner does not own more than 3 such homes at a time, the advertising for the sale or rental was not discriminatory, and the owner did not use a real estate agent or broker.

The Fair Housing Act (FHA) outlaws discrimination against tenants based on certain personal characteristics, commonly known as protected classes. The FHA added familial status as a protected class in 1989 to make sure that families with children aren't treated differently when renting.

What does "familial status" mean? Familial status means the makeup of your family. The FHA prohibits discrimination on this basis including: children under the age of 18 living with parents/guardians, pregnant women, and people seeking custody of children under 18.

Examples of familial status discrimination include: Refusing to rent to families with children. Evicting families once a child joins the family through, e.g., birth, adoption, custody. Requiring families with children to live on specific floors or in specific buildings or areas.

Under the FHA, familial status discrimination occurs when a landlord, property manager, real estate agent, or property owner treats someone differently because they have a family with one or more individuals who are under 18 years of age.

If the tenant refuses, you are permitted to send them a notice to agree or quit the property. The tenant refusing you access constitutes a breach in the lease agreement, so they could be evicted if they continue to deny access.
