THINK. Think through your experience, from the beginning to the end. Was any part of what you experienced based on race, color, religion, gender, family status, national origin, disability, marital status, or age? Do you know of other people who had a different or the same experience as you?

​

Some common signs of possible discrimination include: 

• Being Refused When Trying to Sell, Rent, or Show Housing

• Different Housing Terms Offered to Different People

• Any Statement That the Housing Is Not Right for You or Your Family

• Housing Listed As “Available,” but You Are Told It Is Not Available

• Being Directed to Certain Neighborhoods Based on Race, Ethnicity, or Family Status

• Something Changes From a Phone Call and an In-Person Visit

• You Are Not Contacted After Your Application

​

WRITE IT DOWN. Write down names, addresses, and phone numbers of anyone or any company involved. Be as specific as you can and note dates, times, and what conversations took place. Keep copies of letters, emails, or any other documents or information that were a part of the experience.
