This is a fair housing seminar geared to the individual rental property owner.  Protect your investment by understanding the law.  Fair Housing Violations can be very expensive.  Learn about what you can and cannot do when advertising your vacancy, filling your vacancy, dealing with people with disabilities, service animals, harassment and much more.  This would include about an hour and a half of fair housing basics (what the laws cover, what to do or not to do, reasonable accommodation, etc.), then a break, and another hour and a half where you put what you’ve learned to use in a “hypothetical scenarios” type session with real life examples.
