Mr. Rose:
I'm glad that it's easier for you, concerning housing, and you seem to have respectable landlords who know better than to discriminate.
I can't help but wonder where I am if the management asks a potential tenant if they have seizures (which they aren't entitled to ask) and then refuse someone based on that info.
State HUD housing? I'll look into that.
Thank you.
