Fair housing.

Fair Housing Statement

Title VIII, Civil Rights Act of 1968.

Eddie Weir and REMAX fully support the principles of the Fair Housing Act (Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968), as amended, which generally prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, and financing of dwellings, and in other housing-related transactions, based on:

• Race
• Color
• National origin
• Religion
• Sex
• Familial status — including children under the age of 18 living with parents or legal custodians, pregnant women, and people securing custody of children under the age of 18
• Handicap (disability)

Texas-specific protections.

In addition to federal Fair Housing protections, Texas state law and the Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) Code of Ethics impose corresponding obligations on every licensed Texas REALTOR® and brokerage. As a Houston REALTOR®, I am bound by both federal and Texas Fair Housing requirements on every transaction.

Diversity in practice.

As an adjunct to the foregoing commitment, I actively promote and am committed to creating and fostering an environment of diversity throughout my client work. I view this as a critical component of how I do business in Greater Houston — not a compliance line item.

If you’ve experienced housing discrimination.

If you believe you have experienced housing discrimination during a transaction or property search, you may file a complaint directly with:

• U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) — file a Fair Housing complaint
• Texas Workforce Commission Civil Rights Division — Texas civil-rights complaints

You may also reach me directly at 832-343-8383 or eddie@eddieweir.com. I take Fair Housing complaints seriously and will route them to the appropriate authorities when warranted.
