Q: My city recently passed an ordinance protecting students against housing discrimination. The community I manage, however, receives low-income housing tax credits, so I must comply with federal tax credit rules—including the “student rule.” Under this rule, I can’t rent low-income units to households comprised entirely of full-time students, except in very limited circumstances. But if I reject such applicants, could I be liable for violating fair housing law?
