The ADA & Fair Housing: What Property Managers Need to Know
A resident with a disability needs a lower pool-gate latch to access the pool.
But lowering the latch could create a safety concern for children—who are also protected under the Fair Housing Act.
So which requirements apply? What does the property have to do? And who decides?
These are the kinds of real-world situations property teams need to be prepared to handle.
Join Melinda McBeth, J.D., Counsel at Offit Kurman, and Megan Davidson, SVP at Alliant Insurance Services, for a practical conversation about where Fair Housing, ADA, accessibility, safety and insurance risk intersect.
Live Webinar · Recording available to all registrants · Complimentary
Session Overview
Why Your Team Should Attend
The Fair Housing Act protects people with disabilities and families with children, and requires housing providers to address reasonable accommodation requests. The ADA can also apply to housing-related facilities and services in certain circumstances.
