Learn about Housing Discrimination:
Under Hawaii Revised Statutes Chapter 515, it is unlawful for an owner, realtor, resident manager, property
manager, or any other person engaged in the sale or rental of housing to discriminate because of:
Examples of housing discrimination are when:
You are charged higher rent than tenants of the opposite sex.
You are not given pool privileges because you are perceived as being HIV-Positive
A landlord refuses to rent to you because you have children
A realtor tells you that property is not available for Inspection, sale, rental, or lease, but later shows
the same property to people of a diff erent ethnic group.
A salesperson discourages you from buying or renting a home in a certain neighborhood because
you are a diff erent race than most of, the present residents
You have diffi culty obtaining fi nancing, because of your ancestry/national origin, although you
have suffi cient income and a satisfactory credit rating.
Workshop is accessible for all individuals. For more Information or to request an auxiliary aid or service
