The Fair housing Act is a federal law that gives you everything that you need to stay profitable in your rentals, make affordable housing, and give people a leg-up who need it most. And you can put it in the face of your local building council, because it's federal law. Not enough people are using this, and it's sad. Backyards are the most under-utili

zed prime real estate, and it's a travesty that it continues that way. We could end homelessness tomorrow with this, all the while ensuring you don't lose your own properties do to a sudden loss of rental income from the main house. Pictures of tiny houses

How does the fair housing act let you circumvent local zoning codes? The FHA is to stop discrimination to renters and sellers. Not let you up the zoning to your lot.
