All About HUD Updates and other Guidelines to prepare for 2021

In public housing, even the most ordinary, everyday tenant issues can land you in serious legal trouble. And if you don’t respond properly, Fair Housing Act violations can cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars, including claims for compensatory damages and attorney fees. Therefore, it behooves all property owners, managers, maintenance staff, and even leasing agents to learn all there is to know about fair housing to stay compliant and avoid costly penalties.

Join nationally recognized fair housing expert Paul Flogstad in this power-packed Boot Camp where he will cover all of the basics of fair housing. He'll cover the basics of fair housing including the protected classes. In the boot camp, Paul will also include a section on fair housing for maintenance staff. Over 62% of complaints to HUD are related to maintenance issues. Other topics include the latest updates to criminal screening, reasonable accommodation and service/companion animals, disparate impact, and limited English proficiency.

The ultimate goal of this session is to provide you the information so that you may avoid a fair housing complaint. These complaints could result in penalties and court judgments running into thousands of dollars. By having this knowledge you will avoid the complaints and treat all of your tenants fairly.
