Information Disclaimer
APARTMENT ConNeXTion is an advertising and information source. This website only provides advertising and information services to help connect people searching for rental housing with owners that have rental housing available. APARTMENT ConNeXTion does not lease or sublease rental housing and is not a party to any transaction between property owners (or their agents, brokers, property managers, or employees) and prospective renters.
APARTMENT ConNeXTion does not:
- Guarantee, warrant, or ensure any part of any rental housing transaction between a renter and landlord.
- Execute any lease or sublease documentation on behalf of any landlord or renter.
- Collect or process any application fees, security deposits, or rental payments on behalf of renters or landlords.
- Lease, or sublease or offer to broker, lease or sublease and rental housing.
- Own, lease, or have any ownership interest in any rental housing
Best Available Information Limitations:
The rental advertisements published online through APARTMENT ConNeXTion represent the best available information. We do have an opportunity to physically inspect many (but certainly not all) advertised rental homes. Therefore, we must rely on representations and descriptions from the property owner or its agents. We encourage you, as a prospective renter, to let us know if you go on a showing that is materially different from the listing description. You can contact us about a listing disparity by clicking more information link in the listing and picking the email option. Address your email to mail@apartmentconnextion.com and use the message field to specify exactly what you observed as inconsistent with the listing.
The published rents and availabilities are subject to change without notice in the sole discretion of the property owner or manager at any time. Despite our best efforts, we do occasionally publish listings with typographical errors or inaccuracies. We make these text corrections and owner rent / availability changes for the affected listing online as soon as we become aware of them. Please be advised that the current online listing is always the most recent and supersedes any prior online versions of that listing.
Square footage figures and room dimensions are often estimates, always rounded to the nearest foot; they are never represented as exact. Photos and floor plans are representative of the advertised unit, but are not always of the exact unit currently available. If you have a critical dimension for you furniture or a strong color preference for any unit feature, please confirm it yourself upon physical inspection before entering into any lease agreement.
APARTMENT ConNeXTion assumes no liability for typographical errors or inaccuracies in the information provided by advertisers. All renters are most strongly encouraged to personally inspect any rental housing advertised through APARTMENT ConNeXTion before signing any lease documentation, providing personal information such as a social security number on a lease application, giving any money for any application fee, reservation or security deposit, or rent payment.
Equal Housing Opportunity
All rental housing advertised in APARTMENT ConNeXTion is subject to the federal Fair Housing Act and other federal, state and local municipality laws that were enacted to guarantee a housing market free from discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin.
APARTMENT ConNeXTion will not knowingly accept or permit any advertisement for real estate that is in violation of the law. All persons are hereby informed that all dwellings advertised are available on an equal opportunity basis.
Laws:
Civil Rights Act of 1866 prohibits all racial discrimination in the sale or rental of property.
Fair Housing Act declares a national policy of fair housing throughout the United States. The law makes illegal any discrimination in the sale, lease or rental of housing, or making housing otherwise unavailable, because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin.
Americans with Disabilities Act prohibits discrimination against persons with disabilities in places of public accommodations and commercial facilities.
Equal Credit Opportunity Act makes discrimination unlawful with respect to any aspect of a credit application on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, marital status, age or because all or part of the applicant’s income derives from any public assistance program.
State and Local Laws often provide broader coverage and prohibit discrimination based on additional classes not covered by federal law.
Responsibilities:
Landlord. As a landlord you have a responsibility and a requirement under the law not to discriminate in the rental of your property on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin. You cannot instruct the licensed broker or rental manager acting as your agent to convey for you any limitations in the sale or rental because the real estate professional is also bound by law not to discriminate. Under the law, a landlord cannot establish discriminatory terms or conditions in the rental; deny that housing is available, or advertise that the property is available only to persons of a certain race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin.
Real Estate Professional. Agents in a real estate transaction are prohibited by law from discriminating on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin. A request from the landlord to act in a discriminatory manner in the sale, lease or rental cannot legally be fulfilled by the real estate professional.
Renter. You have the right to expect that housing will be available to you without discrimination or other limitations based on race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin. This includes the right to expect:
- Housing in your price range made available to you without discrimination;
- Equal professional service;
- The opportunity to consider a broad range of housing choices.
- No discriminatory limitations on communities or locations of housing.
- Reasonable accommodations in rules, practices and procedures for persons with disabilities.
- Non-discriminatory terms and conditions for the rental or insuring the contents of a dwelling.
- To be free from harassment or intimidation for exercising your fair housing rights.
