For Property Managers

Under § 30-63, property owners and managers should be aware that any fair housing complaint filed against them will trigger a mandatory investigation ordered by the chairman of the administering agency. Compliant operators generally maintain thorough records of their rental practices, communications, and decisions so they are prepared to respond to any inquiry that arises from such an investigation. Familiarity with this process helps operators understand that complaints move forward through a structured, agency-directed review.
