Visit Fairhaven During Fair Housing Month
|
|
|
Fairhaven is a town every REALTOR® should visit. Online, that is. NAR's Fairhaven is a fair housing simulation training for REALTORS® that uses the power of storytelling to help members identify, prevent, and address discriminatory practices in real estate. Inspired by real stories, this experience has agents work against the clock to sell homes in the fictional town of Fairhaven, while confronting discrimination in the homebuying process. Learners will
also walk in the shoes of a homebuyer facing discrimination. The training provides customized feedback that learners can apply to daily business interactions. Get started by visiting fairhaven.realtor and assess how well you know fair housing principles. You can also click here to take a free version of the simulation that will give you CE credit through Kentucky REALTORS®.
Don't miss these fair housing resources! PRINT the 2024 Fair Housing Poster for your office. REGISTER for NAR's upcoming virtual fair housing events in April. LISTEN to these podcasts on Fair Housing. WATCH these recommended documentaries, films, and videos. READ these recommended books.
