Is it illegal to advertise different rental prices for SEC 8...

Listing my home for rent

SEC 8 voucher for a 4 bedroom is 1000

People who do not accept the voucher, usually have lower rents..

So with a sec 8 tenant, i can get 1k per month and with a normal tenant the market allows me to get 850.00

Is it illegal to change rental prices and agreements?

Let me clarify something.

  1. It is perfectly legal to discriminate in rental housing
  2. It is NOT legal to discriminate against "Protected Classes"

@Lien Vuong Posted

without discrimination or other limitations bases on your race, color,
religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin.

You CAN discriminate for people other than listed above (based on federal law). You can discriminate based on criminal background for example, or you can discriminate based on someone not meeting your income requirements.

Now It is important to understand that state or local jurisdictions can have more "protected classes" and you need to know those local requirements.
