Fair Housing Statement

Elite Properties (Demo) is committed to the letter and spirit of the federal Fair Housing Act and all applicable state and local fair housing laws. We believe that every person deserves equal access to housing opportunities, and we are dedicated to providing professional, ethical service to all clients and customers regardless of background.

Our Commitment

As a licensed real estate brokerage in the State of Florida, Elite Properties (Demo) pledges to uphold fair housing principles in every aspect of our business.

We actively support and promote fair housing practices throughout our organization and in the communities we serve. Discrimination has no place in our business, and we are committed to fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment for all.

Equal Opportunity Housing

In accordance with the Federal Fair Housing Act (Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, as amended) and the Florida Fair Housing Act, it is unlawful to discriminate in the sale, rental, financing, or advertising of housing based on:

  • Race or color
  • Religion
  • National origin
  • Sex (including gender identity and sexual orientation)
  • Familial status (families with children under 18, pregnant women, or people securing custody of children)
  • Disability (physical or mental)

In addition, Florida law prohibits discrimination based on additional protected classes including age and marital status. Some local jurisdictions within South Florida provide further protections.
