Chapter 8

Section 17 of 41

You cannot tell someone a property is sold or rented when it is actually still available.The Scenario: A black couple walks into a leasing office. The manager says, "Sorry, we just rented the last unit 10 minutes ago."Ten minutes later, a white couple walks in, and the manager says, "Welcome! We have two units available."The Testing: Fair Housing advocates often use "testers"—pairs of people with similar credit but different races—to visit offices and see if they get the same answer. If one is told "No" and the other "Yes," that is a lawsuit waiting to happen.
