Fair housing
Equal Housing Opportunity
Everyone deserves the same access to housing, the same information and the same standard of service.
Our commitment
Melissa Smets and Smets Real Estate | RE/MAX Fine Properties support the Fair Housing Act and the principle of Equal Opportunity in housing. Real estate services are provided without regard to race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status or national origin, and in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local fair housing laws.
What this means in practice
- Every client receives the same quality of service and access to information
- Properties are described by their features, never by who "belongs" in a neighborhood
- Questions about the character or demographics of an area are answered with objective, verifiable sources rather than personal characterizations
- Steering of any kind is not practiced
