RSMo ch. 213 — Human Rights
Operative Text
Mo. Rev. Stat. § 213.100 is part of Missouri's Human Rights Act, which broadly prohibits discriminatory practices in housing and related transactions. The provision establishes protections against unlawful discrimination based on characteristics such as race, color, religion, national origin, sex, ancestry, or disability in the sale, rental, or financing of housing. It sets a legal standard that housing opportunities must be made available without regard to these protected characteristics.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Mo. Rev. Stat. § 213.100, property owners and managers operating in Missouri are generally expected to apply consistent, non-discriminatory criteria when advertising, showing, renting, selling, or financing housing. Compliant operators typically maintain uniform written policies for tenant screening, pricing, and availability that do not vary based on any protected class identified in the statute. Keeping thorough documentation of leasing decisions and communications is a common practice among operators seeking to demonstrate adherence to this provision.
