Protecting Your HOA From FHA Discrimination Suits

Written by Admin | Nov 23, 2020 7:18:00 PM

This webinar features speakers Mike Hunter and Ben Karb of Offit Kurman, Attorneys at Law, and covers the Fair Housing Act (FHA) and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) as they relate to homeowner's associations. The presentation begins with some basic facts about FHA and ADA, what and who they cover, and some "buzz words" to look out for when a potentially discriminatory situation may be presenting itself. The attorneys then dive into reasonable accommodations, disability claims, and the responsibilities of both homeowner's associations and disabled persons when it comes to such accommodations. Requirements surrounding service and support animals are also discussed as are claims of harassment and age-restricted communities. The information presented throughout this webinar is essential to board members as it can assist in avoiding potential liability issues, lawsuits, fines, and more.
