April
Fair Housing Month
Each April, Fair Housing Month is a time to promote housing for all, no matter what one's race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin may be. The home seller, the home seeker, and the real estate professional all have rights and responsibilities to ensure all citizens have equal rights homeownership. NJAR® REALTORS® abide by a strict Code of Ethics to treat all parties in a real estate transaction honestly. REALTORS® support Fair Housing Month by helping to raise awareness and educate consumers about fair housing laws and the importance of equal opportunity in housing.
