Fair Housing
Our Commitment to Equal Housing Opportunity
dwello Home Group is committed to equal housing opportunity. We comply with the federal Fair Housing Act, the Illinois Human Rights Act, and all applicable fair housing laws, and we support the letter and spirit of those laws. We do not discriminate, and we do not tolerate discrimination, in any of our real estate services.
All dwellings advertised or referenced on this website are available on an equal opportunity basis.
Protected Classes
Federal law (the Fair Housing Act) prohibits discrimination in housing on the basis of:
- Race
- Color
- National origin
- Religion
- Sex (including sexual orientation and gender identity)
- Familial status (families with children under 18)
- Disability
Illinois law (the Illinois Human Rights Act) extends these protections and also prohibits discrimination on the basis of:
- Ancestry
- Age
- Marital status
- Military status
- Unfavorable discharge from military service
- Order of protection status
- Citizenship or immigration status
- Pregnancy
- Arrest record
- Source of income — including lawful and verifiable sources such as veterans’ benefits, disability benefits, support payments, and housing subsidies such as Housing Choice (Section 8) vouchers
What This Means
We treat all clients and prospective clients equally, regardless of membership in any protected class. We do not steer, and we do not express or imply any preference, limitation, or discrimination based on a protected class in our listings, marketing, communications, or the services we provide. Our automated tools and communications are designed to follow these same fair housing principles.
