Curbing Fair Housing and Other Costly Mistakes, Misunderstandings and Misinformation That Create Costly Complaints

Missteps in fair housing and other areas can create expensive lawsuits. Sometimes we guess at what we should do, we listen to rumors and gossip, get bad advice and make poor decisions that create complaints. The speaker receives many questions regarding hard to understand, or seemingly simple situations and blunders that can get an apartment community in trouble. You may be surprised that the way you are dealing with resident and property management issues can turn into costly mistakes.

The number one reason that people stop ‘doing business’ with any property/company is the way they are spoken to and treated by the staff. In today’s environment dealing with Covid 19, residents/customers are scared, angry and frustrated. And they are quick to file complaints!
