Description

This form covers the subject matter described in the form's title for your State. This is a letter from Tenant to Landlord providing notice that Landlord is in violation of the Fair Housing Act through a reduction of denial of services to familiies with children. It is unlawful to deny or discriminate in housing because of race, color, religion, sex, familial status, or national origin. Subject: Urgent Matter — Fair Housing Reduction or Denial of Services to Family with Children Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to you today to address a concerning matter related to the fair housing rights of families with children residing in your property in Grand Rapids, Michigan. It has come to my attention that there have been instances of reduction of services and potential denial of fair housing opportunities to families with children, which is a clear violation of fair housing laws and regulations. As you are aware, both federal and state fair housing laws prohibit discrimination against families with children. Under the Fair Housing Act, it is against the law to deny rental opportunities, impose different terms and conditions, or reduce services based on familial status. In addition, the State of Michigan also enforces similar laws, protecting families with children from discrimination in housing. Unfortunately, there have been reports from families residing in your property of instances where services have been reduced, and in some cases, outright denial of housing opportunities solely due to their familial status. This is deeply troublesome, as it is not only illegal but also goes against the principles of fairness and equality that we should strive to uphold. As a responsible landlord, it is your duty to ensure that all tenants, regardless of familial status, are treated fairly and provided with equal housing opportunities. I kindly request that you address this issue immediately and take the necessary steps to rectify any discrimination that has occurred. Specifically, I respectfully ask that: 1. You cease any discriminatory practices immediately and inform your staff or property management team about the importance of adhering to fair housing laws. 2. Provide written assurance that families with children will not be subjected to any reduction of services or denial of housing opportunities based on their familial status. 3. Conduct a review of all current and past tenancy applications to identify any instances where families with children may have been unfairly treated or had their services reduced due to their familial status. 4. If any instances of discrimination are discovered, take corrective action immediately, including providing appropriate remedies to the affected families and implementing policies that ensure fair treatment of all tenants moving forward. Furthermore, I would like to request that you provide written documentation within 10 business days outlining the steps you have taken or plan to take to address this issue and ensure fair treatment of families with children in your property. It is vital that you safeguard the rights of your tenants in compliance with both federal and state fair housing laws. Please be informed that if this matter is not promptly addressed or if there is evidence of ongoing discriminatory practices, affected families may have no choice but to file formal complaints with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) or pursue legal action. It is in the best interest of both your business and the well-being of your tenants to address this issue promptly and comprehensively. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that you will take immediate action to rectify any instances of discrimination that may have occurred and ensure fair housing practices are enforced within your property. Sincerely, [Tenant's Name] [Tenant's Contact Information]
