Walking Into Trouble​

Fair Housing for Maintenance

These webinars in no way offer advice or counsel with respect to any legal situation. You should not act or rely upon the information in these webinars without the advice of an attorney. 

Maintenance employees are on the front-line of the battle of avoiding fair housing complaints.  They often see and interact with the residents more than anyone else in the Company.  It is important maintenance employees know what to say and do before they walk into a problem.   

In this webinar, we will discuss common issues maintenance employees encounter and some realistic steps they can take to avoid getting in trouble with HUD.  Our topics will include:

  • Encountering Nude & Partially Nude Residents
  • Dating Residents
  • Apartments with Only Minor Children
  • Recognizing a Hoarder
  • Managing Maintenance Requests​

Restricting Children on the Property

​​

Domestic violence is an issue almost every landlord has been forced to face.  Can you evict?  Do you need to get involved at all?  Why is the resident looking to you for help? 

Whether you’re a federally funded property, a tax credit property, or accept a Section 8 voucher, you must comply with the Violence Against Women Act.  Every landlord should know the rules on when the Act applies, transfers, documentation, and liability.  In this webinar, we will discuss: 

  • Recognizing when the VAWA May or May Not Apply
  • Sorting out the Paperwork
  • Requesting Documentation
  • Transfers
  • Liability
  • Recent Cases Interpreting the Act
