The annual compliance check-up is smart reset for anyone working in occupancy, compliance, resident services, or property operations. The session provides a focused update on regulatory and enforcement changes to fair housing law heading into 2026, including federal agency guidance, state-level developments, and recent court decisions.

You’ll walk away with practical steps to tighten documentation, communicate policy changes, avoid inconsistent decisions, and reduce liability across your organization.
