Familia Discrimination or Not?
This owner occupied triplex, legally discriminated against renting to families with children.
The owner hired a licensed agent to represent them to rent a 2 bedroom apartment in this owner occupied triplex. A well qualified applicant was turned down by the owner because the applicant had one child.
The agent, to get around the legalities, changed the listing to a one bedroom and eventually rented the apartment to a single person.
Did the agent break the law?
