2024 – Fair Housing Focus: Hoarding

Did you know that hoarding disorder affects 1 in every 20 people?  This means if you work in the housing industry you will likely encounter this issue and need to know how to respond and adjust your operations. Hoarding situations are becoming more common for housing providers across the country because owners and managers don’t know how to properly address the issue. This has led to more fair housing complaints, along with more lost time and money every year.

In this course we will walk you through the complicated process of identifying and addressing a resident with a hoarding disorder. We will include plenty of examples, along with some crucial dos and don’ts. Understanding this issue and how to properly provide a reasonable accommodation, will protect your property, your career, your community, and provide the best chance for residents with disabilities to enjoy your property while staying in compliance with their lease. Trust us, you can’t afford to miss this course!
