The Fair Housing Center of Southeast & Mid Michigan (FHC) announces the resolution of a complaint based on familial status discrimination, in violation of the Fair Housing Act, filed against Management Resources Development, Inc. (MRD).
MRD is a property management and construction company with its headquarters in East Lansing, Michigan. MRD owns and/or manages over 9,000 properties, including apartments, in 10 states.
The complaint filed with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) alleged that MRD engaged in systemic discrimination against families with children across properties in Michigan and Indiana by enforcing an overly-restrictive occupancy policy of no more than two people per bedroom regardless of a unit’s square footage.
