Title: Legal advice needed. Racist landlord.
Post by: MikMaq on October 20, 2011, 08:49:37 AM
Alright real simple, as you all know I'm apartment hopping, so I've just found a place for the month of november.
Anyhow they said over the phone that they don't rent to welfare. Is that legal isn't that discrimination based on occupation? I really don't give a shit, but it's a good enough reason to fuck my landlord over and bail out with no notice in a months time.

Here's the real problem: YOU

1. You're on welfare
2. You ain't getting your security deposit back.

If you're on wellfare then you have no occupation. So ofcourse they won't give you a condo. And even if you had occupation you wouldn't necessarily get a condo dipending on your income. So there is no discrimination  :D

I thought you were smarter than this  ;D

I ain't on welfare and you retards got a bad case of ADD if you think I do. Aright to get techinical it's occupational status, same thing. Anyhow there not doing this based on income if that were so I'd have no complaint, nor if it were by reference, by damage deposit, credit rating etc, they said they don't rent to people who get their income from the government. Remember veterans on disability would also be excluded under their policy, hence is that fucking legal? So you got a veteran 18 years old with a missing arm and a leg, and your refusing to rent to them, just because they get a check from the government?


Anyhow as I said I don't really care if it's illegal or not I'm hopping on these bitches. The city got my back 30 days notice is all I need and there obligated by law to give my damage deposit back.

Lets keep in mind, we all know I ain't on welfare, so I'm guessing your referring to the my example of a veteran, because from what your saying there just welfare leaches as well.

Lol he can take my 100 dollar damage deposit. Anyhow no advice needed he told me, he'd take me just because I'm white and not a city slicker.

If it looks like racism, and sounds like racism it's racist.

You're not a veteran, you have legs and arms and are in perfect working condition. The policies towards veterans are very biased. But in your case they just think that this dude needs to work and stop with his attitude!

So it's definetely not illeagal what they are doing. If you are capable of working then people are just wondering why won't you. In my country you will get a wellfare check only if you are listed as a "job seeker", otherwise no checks.

Lolz I ain't on welfare, I work(rare for getbig) I also got a nice chunk of changed saved up. Anyhow again this ain't about me the landlord wanted me to their as I said because I'm white and ain't some yuppie fag.

But this guy is obviously racist, obviously isn't doing shit legally, not that I really give a shit as it directly benefits me.

LOL excuse me then!

Well then it's fucked up! Go to the police station and just say calmly you want to make prosecution about a fraud. If the landlord is giving you checks that "you have to pay" then it's a fraud if he has no base to back up shit.

You gotta fight back. Kids in sandbox, 20-30 years later, and it's a land lord trying to put you down, but it's the same shit, only a differend scale. Fight back the system. I hate these so called authoritys who think they can snake every people they please. Everytime a bomb drops, noone wants to do shit, but I think you should give him back the same way.

Fair Housing Act

Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968 (Fair Housing Act), as amended, prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, and financing of dwellings, and in other housing-related transactions, based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status (including children under the age of 18 living with parents or legal custodians, pregnant women, and people securing custody of children under the age of 18), and handicap (disability). http://portal.hud.gov/hudportal/HUD?src=/program_offices/fair_housing_equal_opp/FHLaws (http://portal.hud.gov/hudportal/HUD?src=/program_offices/fair_housing_equal_opp/FHLaws)

So there you have it. It is legal to refuse to rent to someone for any reason except those defined in above. Therefore, it is legal to refuse to rent to those collecting welfare or getting public housing assistance. Now if someone receives SSD (Social Security Disability) and that is their documented income source, they could take issue with a landlord who refused to rent to them based on their being disabled.

You have to understand the pluses and minuses of section 8.
Plus side the landlord is virtually guaranteed the rent money as it comes directly from the government. The down side is that a lot of people on sec 8 are undesirable and will likely be trouble and leave damages when they move out.

Don't forget they usually have 6 people living in a two bedroom apt.

There are some places that don't rent to section 8 (read welfare), it's entirely legal...they do background and credit checks---if your shit is effed up, you won't get the apt/condo, that's why people have co-signers.
Times are hard, not just for reg joes, but for apt/condo places...you got people trying to stiff them, or trying to get nice places and they don't work, have bad cred or just criminals.
And signing a month to month lease costs more than a reg lease.
You picked a bad time to do apt hopping.

That's what I thought, it's just fucking disgusting when people get on with this shit so openly. I mean it's one thing to be subtle and avoid renting to such people, but when someone says how are you gonna pay your rent as soon as they pick up the phone, you know there fucking ignorant.

Anyhow I'm kinda stuck, It's a great place, and in a good location, it just seems kinda sketchy trusting folk that are blatantly racist. I donno maybe I was naive to this shit.

P.S. the landlord is definitely a getbigger.

Nah man not here, it's fine, anyhow the only reason this shit was an issue is should I feel bad on ditching on someone who is obviously a bigot.

Of course I'll less 100 bucks if I bail, but I also get other options as well.

a landlord can rent his property to whomever he chooses as long as he (she) doesnt discirminte against a "protected class." income (or lack thereof) is not a protected class. period. 

so an owner can say, "you dont make enough money, so im not renting to you." this is completely legal.

an owner CANNOT say "you are (insert race here) and you dont make enough money, so im not renting to you"

section 8 is different. it is an agreement with thte federalis who promise to pay for X amount of the rent providing they (renter) meets certain conditions.

You are wrong here. Source of income is a protected class. Also they can verify that you make enough to pay rent. It is common to require tenants to make something like 2.5 the monthly rent in income.

I worked in property management and have gone through fair housing training. This protected class actually was partly formed because landlords didnt want to rent to strippers, lol.
