Tenant Discrimination Liability Insurance

Property owners and managers need to protect themselves in the event that they are sued by current, former, or prospective tenants, or related parties. A discrimination lawsuit could be filed for alleged Violations of the Fair Housing Act, which could include religious, age, disability, racial and/or sexual discrimination, or harassment. It is important to note that this is different than most general liability property coverage for bodily injury, property damage, or personal injury to others.

There has been an increase in suits of this nature, and the costs associated with defending them can be high. A Tenant Discrimination insurance policy will help to protect property management companies from these expenses, and others, depending on your coverage.
