Our commitment
TheKabza.com supports and complies with the federal Fair Housing Act (Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, as amended), the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and every state and local fair housing law that applies in the markets we serve.
We do not discriminate — in showing property, in accepting or presenting offers, in advertising, in tenant screening, or in any other part of a transaction — on the basis of:
- Race
- Color
- Religion
- National origin
- Sex, including sexual orientation and gender identity
- Familial status, including families with children under 18 and pregnant people
- Disability
Several of the states and cities we operate in extend protection further — for example to source of income (including Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers), age, marital status, military or veteran status, or citizenship status. Where a local ordinance is broader than federal law, we follow the broader standard, not the minimum.
What this means when you work with us
We will not steer you. Steering means guiding a buyer or renter toward or away from a neighborhood based on a protected characteristic — including doing it gently, or by omission. If you ask us “is this a good area for people like me?”, we will not answer with a demographic read. Instead we will point you at objective, publicly available data you can evaluate yourself, and we will show you every property that matches your stated criteria.
We will not answer demographic questions about a neighborhood. Questions about the racial, religious or ethnic composition of an area, or about whether a school is “good” in a way that functions as a proxy for those things, are questions we are legally and ethically barred from answering. This is not evasiveness. Directing you to primary sources is the correct and lawful response, and it also gives you better information than an agent’s impression would.
Sellers and landlords receive the same rule. If you list with us, we will present every offer we receive, and we will not accept instructions to exclude a buyer or tenant on a protected basis. An instruction like that ends the engagement.
Advertising is reviewed. Listing copy, photography, and targeted advertising can discriminate even when no one intends it — through coded language, or through ad platform targeting that excludes protected groups. Our listing copy is reviewed before publication, and we do not use demographic exclusion in paid housing advertising.
Accommodations and modifications. If you have a disability, you have the right to request a reasonable accommodation in rules, policies or services, and to request reasonable modifications to a property. Tell us early and we will handle the request with the landlord or seller and keep your medical details out of it.
Accessibility of our own service
If any part of working with us is difficult because of a disability, we will adapt: documents in large print or accessible formats, video tours in place of in-person showings, a companion or advocate present at any meeting, or extra time at any stage. Ask us — there is no approval process and no cost.
See our accessibility statement for how we treat this website specifically.
If you believe you have been discriminated against
Tell us first if you are comfortable doing so. Call (512) 555-0142 or email hello@thekabzas.com and ask for the broker, not your agent. We investigate every report.
You do not have to go through us, and nothing on this page limits your right to complain directly. You can file a housing discrimination complaint with:
- U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) — file a complaint online, or call 1-800-669-9777 (TTY 1-800-927-9275). HUD complaints are generally free and must usually be filed within one year of the incident.
- U.S. Department of Justice, Civil Rights Division — see the Fair Housing Act overview.
- Your state or local fair housing agency, which may offer protections beyond federal law.
Deadlines for filing a lawsuit differ from deadlines for filing an administrative complaint. If you think you have a claim, speak to a lawyer promptly rather than waiting on an internal review.

This page is a plain-language summary of our policy, not a statement of your legal rights in full. Fair housing law is detailed and varies by state and city. If something specific has happened to you, get advice from a lawyer or a fair housing agency rather than relying on this summary.
