Fair Housing, It’s the Law

Date:

NACOGDOCHES, TEXAS–In order to promote fair housing practices, the City of Nacogdoches is encouraging potential homeowners and renters to be aware of their rights under the National Fair Housing Law.

Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, as amended, prohibits discrimination against any person on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status or national origin in the sale or rental of units in the housing market.

For more information on fair housing or to report possible fair housing discrimination, call the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development toll-free hotline at 1-800- 669-9777.
