Reasonable Accommodation

What is considered unreasonable?
An accommodation is considered unreasonable if it creates an undue financial or administrative burden on the housing provider, or if it requires a fundamental alteration in the nature of its operations.

What is the correct way to ask a rental property for a Reasonable Accommodation?
A renter simply has to ask. The request for a reasonable accommodation does NOT have to be in writing. The rental property can request verification (like a doctor's note) that the renter is disabled and needs to accommodation to enjoy their home or community.

However, the property manager is NOT allowed to ask about the nature, extent, or severity of the renter's disability.

What if the rental property does not respond to the request or denies a request that is reasonable?
If the property manager does not respond to the reasonable accommodation request in a reasonable amount of time, the delay could be considered as a failure to provide a reasonable accommodation.

What can I do if a reasonable accommodation (that actually is reasonable) is denied?
