How to File HUD Complaint - Fair Housing Violations & Tenant Rights
Housing Discrimination Laws
Laws at all levels of government-federal, state, county, and city-prohibit housing discrimination, and each set of laws has its own complaint processes and enforcement procedures.
Federal law-specifically, the Fair Housing Act (FHA) Federal Housing Administration-prohibits discrimination based on:
race
color
religion
sex
disability
familial status, and
national origin.
(42 U.S.C. §§ 3601 and following.) www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/te...
This ban on discrimination applies to the renting and selling of nearly all types of property. (The FHA has limited exceptions.
Other violations are less obvious, such as asking a potential tenant if she is pregnant or not allowing a service animal due to a “no pets” policy.
Should I File a Fair Housing Complaint?
If you experience housing discrimination, you'll want to first determine which law or laws apply to your situation.
How Do I File a Fair Housing Complaint?
If you’ve decided to pursue a complaint under federal, state, or local law, the next step is to prepare and file the complaint.
Filing a Federal Fair Housing Complaint
Victims file federal fair housing complaints with HUD’s Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity (FHEO). You can call FHEO directly to lodge your complaint or fill out and file a complaint form. FHEO accepts completed complaint forms online, by email, by mail, and at any of its ten regional offices.
After receiving a complaint, FHEO begins an investigation. When the investigation is complete, FHEO will either dismiss the complaint (if it doesn’t find enough evidence of discrimination) or issue a Charge of Discrimination.
The laws implemented and enforced by FHEO include:
• The Fair Housing Act
• Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964
• Section 109 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974
• Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973
• Titles II and III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990
• The Architectural Barriers Act of 1968
• The Age Discrimination Act of 1975
• Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972
• Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968

What are the top issues with the HUD Process?
I hope they can look into my compliant there was a lot of corruption housing discrimination at these Apartments owned by the Government that I lived at, it's horrible sad how they can get away with such act of Hate and discrimination !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im a single mom with a 2 year old. I just had to file a complaint against my landlord because ive been waiting a month to get my refrigerator fixed. The landlord just kept giving me the run around about when my fridge would be fixed. He didn't even apologize for the inconvenience he caused me.
My concerns involve (1) unlawful entry to my Senior apartment ; (2) thief of property and (3) management refusal to accept my medical doctor's advise for my well-being related to the biding meal setvice
I thought I was the only one.From what I hear from other people they have a history of discrimination, harrassment
Call the news stations
I have been harassed by my landlord, filed complaints all the way up to HUD and nothing was done. Eventhough i had proof of harassment HUD took the side of the landlord who has repeatedly violated their own policies to cause me harm and no peace of mind.
Its a disgrace that they always side with them. The renter never wins, but if they do its because of race, I'm sure. Truly sad.
Where to upload the proof/documents?? This button if it ever existed on HUD OIG site, doesn't anymore 😞
A higher volume is always better. The user on this end can always turn it down but can only turn it up so much
Thanks! Very Informative ⚖️

My Senior HUD housing is not only Section 8. I don't receive Sevtion 8 benefits. I am a retiree with a pension and years of service working since age 15
Property Employee that work in office, which is also our neighborhood harassed us about unassigned parking spot, (closest to their unit but UNASSIGNED,saying it’s hers, the other one was open, she said no it’s for my daughter! which we DID NOT move our car, then after came a pet deposit fee (been here 2 years) now if we renew our lease it’s more added to our rent than it is our other neighbors…. And ours is the oldest unit nothing new or renovated. that’s just the discrimination part
Can they threaten to terminate ur housing bc you can't make the 1st meeting appointment after a year?
Well I own over 27 foreclosed homes, and was kicked off the housing because I found out, I never owned a home. I was forced to move to an area that was so bad, someone was killed on the front porch two weeks after we moved in. The Section 8 Manager dropped my payment standard down so low I had to move in that area to keep my Voucher. I was refused a reasonable accommodation for my Autistic son. It was just horrible. Im looking to sue the Director, and Managers all that where involved. I've had enough
I want to drop a lawsuit so big
I live in nj and they abuse the privilege of having keys to housing authority tenants…they come in and take items from my apt without permission or warning … can I file a criminal complaint?
Yes.
That’s SO WRONG AND ILLEGAL GET A HIDDEN CAMERA SUE THEM
I file a housing discrimination complaint with the Equal Rights Division. And they ended up harassing me, by dismissing qualified complaint, giving misleading information, abuse of discretion by judges, misrepresent the law. investigator changing your complaint and then dismissing.
What was your process before filing the complaint? Please your experience? How difficult was it to obtain housing?
My property manager has stolen my clothes three times this year and are trying to kick my adult kids and anyone else who comes to see me off the property claiming they are trespassing. They have made it to where I can't leave my apartment health solutions and the properties own security has gotten involved because it's made me suicidal. I need help this is the worst thing I've ever been through.

Where to go to make a complaint on section 8 tenants. For very loud, parties, loud music. Dirty back yard
Call the police.
@@Section8Consulting Thank you
I'm having this problem with the landlord yelling at me and raising the rent in the middle of a year lease and no managers is helping me at section 8...
Me too. Is that allowed
@@lizzyworld007 nope, I talked to the mayor and city manager, they both said it's illegal!
Idk if I need to get a section 8 lawyer.. so my mom is paying way to much for her rent. After I did my own calculations she is paying close to 70% of her income… which is supposed to be 30% of her income in the state of Delaware. She had section 8 for years but in the last two years I always felt like she is paying waaayyy to much with her small ssi she gets once a month. Idk who I need to talk to… cause it’s starting to effect me cause I am paying my own rent on top of helping her with her rent portion as well…. Also she has receipts and proof… in I am trying to figure out how I’m the world is this getting approved???
I think lawyer would be the best option
@@Section8Consulting yea I think so to thanks!
Write a complaint that happen to me
As a property manager I was instructed to deny housing to a gay couple that were mute. I was s****harassed by my regional and because I ignored his advances he made my employment experience a living hell. My regional was corrupt in every way eventually I and the company (Barker M) settled for the serious allegations which they didn't want to take to court. Now the denying housing is a fair housing violation. I then stated that the applicants were not going to understand the lease and rules plus issue with other residents. I eventually informed my HR but she took my supervisor side so we (the gay couple and I) went to HUD. HUD IS INVESTIGATING. What's the next step? Barker M (took my supervisor side) and WHCHC ,( were not interested in hearing me out, the CEO cancelled on my on my way to our meeting place) both now have to hear me in a court setting. How long does the investigation take reconsidering I already gave my testimony to the investigation officer .
That's the most depraved thing I've heard in while , it should be passed on to DOJ.
Hi I have a friend who's 69 years old senior citizen who's had bed bugs in his house for two years and the complex is trying to evict him from his from his property
I want to know what's the remedy because he is not able to go to court he's missed missed a court date and he has no representation what are you doing about a landlord who has not done what they were supposed to do for a senior citizen with bed bugs

I need help withy bank with my 40b home which is subsidized?
If a Hud Housing manager accuses you of something that you did not do and sends you a lease violation letter without any evidence of wrongdoing... What are my rights as a resident? Are there any videos on this?

In October 2021 eight tenants including myself were evicted from our apartment building in San Diego California. The new building owner stated that they were taking rental units off the market and changing the use of the building. I didn't believe that. Reality is that they did minor upgrades and now The units are re-rented to higher paying tenants. The one-bedrooms were bringing in about $1000 a month and now under the new owner they are $2400 per month. I have filed a complaint with HUD a day or two ago and I'm wondering if they will do anything and when. Are they good about responding? The complaint form said to include as many details and documents as possible. Then you get to the end of the online form and it says no more than 4000 digits or letters are allowed. So I had to go in and remove at least half of what I wrote. I could not include all the details. Will they actually respond? Thx
I believe HUD will do the right thing and contact you.
If they're converting, shouldn't you have an option to a Section 8 voucher?
No. And no first right of refusal was offered. So we all got kicked out and all new tenants are there. And attorneys don’t want to take the case. Thank you for your comments.
You should set up a donation portion on your channel
I refuse to let RUclips profit of donations.
I'm gonna barrow some money from my folks. I need your direction on what laws rules regulations professional codes of conduct, standards that are not being extended to myself and situation.
Will look at this more later, but what do you do when you already filed the complaints & there is NO response or action?? HUD IS responsible for what goes on in their property. My contracts every year are directly from HUD. Corruption varies from state to state. No one is protected here. Don't come to this state.
ADA, discrimination laws for sex, religion, race, orientation, marital status, etc. are not enforced by ANY Colorado state or local government.
100% agreed
If a section 8 disabled recipient, make a complaint to hide against a housing Authority is there a likelihood they will be there assistance cut, or black balled of they apply for a different housing program.
@@blueage3674 yes I'm on the do not rent list
Big PAPPA 🐈 🐾 🐾 CATS, Where are you hiding????? 😊
