Fair Housing Policy
Med Pro Housing is committed to equal housing opportunity. Every Host must follow the federal Fair Housing Act and every state and local fair housing law that applies to their property.
Protected characteristics
Federal law prohibits discrimination in renting, and in advertising rentals, based on race, color, religion, national origin, sex (including sexual orientation and gender identity), familial status (households with children under 18, or someone pregnant), and disability.
Many states and cities protect more characteristics, such as age, marital status, source of income including housing vouchers, military or veteran status, ancestry, creed, citizenship or immigration status, and genetic information. Follow the law where your property is located.
Write listings about the home, not the ideal tenant
The advertising rules apply to every Host, including owners whose property is otherwise exempt from parts of the Fair Housing Act. Do not write things like "no kids", "perfect for a single professional", "Christian household", "must be able-bodied", or "English speakers only". Describe the property, its features, the price, and your lawful, objective rental terms.
Our focus on healthcare professionals
We built Med Pro Housing around the needs of healthcare workers on assignment. That focus never permits a Host to use occupation or any other criterion as a way to exclude people because of a protected characteristic. Apply your rental criteria consistently to everyone who inquires.
Reasonable accommodations and assistance animals
Hosts must consider requests for reasonable accommodations and modifications from people with disabilities. That includes assistance animals, both service animals and support animals, even in properties that do not allow pets. Do not charge pet fees or pet deposits for an assistance animal.
How we enforce this policy
We may edit or remove listings and suspend accounts that violate this policy. To report a listing or a message, use the Report button on the listing or in the conversation, or email [support email address].
You can also file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development at hud.gov/fairhousing or 1-800-669-9777, or with your state or local fair housing agency.
