The Act does contain a limited exception that allows non-commercial housing operated by a religious organization to reserve such housing to persons of the same religion.Discrimination in Housing Based Upon Sex, Including Sexual HarassmentThe Fair Housing Act makes it unlawful to discriminate in housing on the basis of sex.

I'm submitting an offer on a duplex and my real estate agent just told me that it would be wise for me to check the sex offenders list.

But sex offenders need to be looked at individually and what class they are makes a difference.

Sounds like OP is wanting to go all-in with it, basically theme the whole place out with it (and provide exotic supplies) akin to the way some people do with Airbnb sex dungeons, where essentially the idea is people are seeking it out explicitly and you're ONLY catering to that crowd. 

It is amazing what landlords will think of next, and if they keep it up, they will need a u-haul truck to haul the application around.

Wanted to get other opinions..thanks.Proposal to Manage Property: Initial duties:Placement of advertising in Gaston Gazette: (owner cost with receipt)Charge of $10.00 per hour for showing of units...etc-(with detailed time log)Rental application $25.00 (charge to applicant) includes...criminal background check, credit check, sex offender, landlord verificationsOnce units are 100% occupied...Collection of rent by Manager 5% collection fee.If rents are collected by owner, Manager Fee would be at $10.00 per hour for any additional management duties...ie...summary ejectments, writ of possession, notice to pay rent or quit, consultation on Tenant Landlord Laws, collection of late rents would be at 5% fee.

So here is exactly what works for us 100% of the time: I/we,the undersigned, authorize (Landlords name) and its agents to obtain an investigative consumer credit report including but not limited to credit history, OFAC search, landlord/tenant court record search, criminal record search and registered sex offender search.

Gerhard  just have some one do a u tube video of your investments then post it on BP and you too will get an offer to get all your money back just like Todd did.. then instead of getting talked into keeping them you take them up on their generous offer of a full recession..  

If you do not take convicts, then this is a simple answer...NO.Once you start looking at the crime, and making judgments, you leave yourself open to that one person you say "no" to that turns around and sues you for discrimination because they happen to be a protected class, and you have a history of selective enforcement that they will argue was pointed at them because of their protected class.Next you'll have a sex offender who claims he was just peeing in public near a school....and the list goes on. 

I doubt she had the same experinces in AU.
