Equal Housing refers to the legal principle that everyone has the right to fair and non-discriminatory access to housing, regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, familial status, or other protected characteristics. Laws supporting Equal Housing, like the federal Fair Housing Act, prohibit discrimination by landlords, property managers, lenders, and real estate agents to ensure all individuals have an equal opportunity to buy, rent, or finance a home. This helps promote inclusive communities and prevents unfair treatment in the housing market.
