Geneva — Title 6 Ch. 6 Fair Housing § 6-6-3
APPLICATION OF PROVISIONS; POSTING:
Operative Text
This chapter shall apply to every real estate agent who, within the city, performs any function as such real estate agent but does not maintain an office or place of doing business within the city, and to every real estate agent who maintains an office or place of doing business within the city. Each broker licensed by the city must post a copy of this chapter in a prominent place at the business address normally occupied by such broker.
Geneva Title 6 Ch. 6 Fair Housing § 6-6-3 establishes that the city's fair housing rules apply broadly to real estate agents operating within Geneva, regardless of whether they maintain a physical office inside city limits. Any agent conducting real estate functions in the city is covered. Additionally, brokers who hold a city license are required to display a copy of the chapter's provisions in a visible location at their primary business address.

Under Geneva § 6-6-3, property owners and managers who work with licensed real estate brokers should be aware that those brokers are obligated to post the fair housing chapter at their place of business. Compliant brokers operating in Geneva—whether or not their office is physically located within city limits—ensure they are familiar with and visibly display the requirements of this chapter. Operators who engage agents for leasing or sales activity within Geneva should confirm those agents understand their obligations under this provision.

Geneva Title 6 Ch. 6 Fair Housing § 6-6-3 means that any real estate agent involved in a transaction within the city is bound by Geneva's fair housing rules, even if that agent's office is located outside city limits. Tenants who believe an agent has failed to comply with the chapter's requirements may raise that concern with the city or a local tenant-rights organization. Noting whether a broker has posted the required copy of this chapter at their business location can be one indicator of overall compliance with Geneva's fair housing obligations.
