Fair Housing Statement for The Nicholas Feagley Team

Federal Fair Housing Act

Under the Federal Fair Housing Act, it is illegal to discriminate in the sale, rental, and financing of dwellings, and in other housing-related transactions, based on:

  • Race

  • Color

  • National Origin

  • Religion

  • Sex (including gender identity and sexual orientation)

  • Familial Status

  • Disability

The Act applies to most housing, with a few exceptions, and covers both intentional discrimination and practices that have a discriminatory effect.

Pennsylvania Fair Housing Laws

In addition to federal protections, Pennsylvania law further prohibits discrimination in housing. The Pennsylvania Human Relations Act extends these protections to include:

  • Race

  • Color

  • National Origin

  • Religion

  • Sex

  • Familial Status

  • Disability

  • Age

  • Ancestry

  • Pregnancy

Many local jurisdictions within Pennsylvania have enacted additional anti-discrimination ordinances, which may cover characteristics such as marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, and source of income.
