My Commitment to Fair Housing

 As you visit this blog, you will see that what I am writing about has applicability to everyone.  I subscribe fully to the National Association of Realtors Fair Housing declaration.  Everything I do in my profession strives to follow these important statements.  My personal walk is no less committed. 

If you have any questions about anything on my site related to fair housing, or questions about the declaration below please ask me immediately.

Here is a link to the Fair Housing brochure of HUD for your benefit.

As a Realtor I agree to:

• Provide equal professional service without regard to the race, color, religion, gender (sex), disability (handicap), familial status, national origin, sexual orientation or gender identity of any prospective client, customer, or of the residents of any community.
• Keep informed about fair housing law and practices, improving my clients’ and customers’ opportunities and my business.
• Develop advertising that indicates that everyone is welcome and no one is excluded;, expanding my client’s and customer’s opportunities to see, buy, or lease property.
• Inform my clients and customers about their rights and responsibilities under the fair housing laws by providing brochures and other information.
• Document my efforts to provide professional service, which will assist me in becoming a more responsive and successful REALTOR®.
• Refuse to tolerate non-compliance.
• Learn about those who are different from me, and celebrate those differences.
• Take a positive approach to fair housing practices and aspire to follow the spirit as well as the letter of the law.
• Develop and implement fair housing practices for my firm to carry out the spirit of this declaration.
