FAIR CHANCE: NEW REQUIREMENTS OF LAW AGAINST DISCRIMINATION
Our panel of local attorneys will be joined by a representative from the New Jersey Division on Civil Rights to explore and explain the NJ Law Against Discrimination (LAD) and the Fair Chance in Housing Act (FCHA) which became effective on January 1, 2022.
The discussion will include how this law effects not only housing providers but also consumers in our local area and the impact on the day-to-day practices of real estate professionals including how the law effects advertising and marketing properties, particularly rentals.
The session will conclude with a Q&A with the panel responding to audience questions regarding the law.

FAIR CHANCE HOUSING ACT
New Jersey is the first state to pass a law ensuring the most criminal history records cannot be used to exclude individuals from housing. The law was signed on Juneteeth 2021, and it went into effective practice as of January 2022. The FCHA defines housing providers as landlords, owners, lessors, sub-lessors, assignees, or their agents. As Realtors, it is our duty to our clients to be well-informed about this important new law.
