Final Fair Housing Symposium in Wilmington — Don’t Miss Your Chance to Attend

Last month, the North Carolina Real Estate Commission held its second Collaborative Fair Housing Symposium in Charlotte at the Canopy REALTOR® Association. The sold-out event brought together expert presenters from Charlotte-Mecklenburg Community Relations, the United States Attorney’s Office, Legal Aid of North Carolina’s Fair Housing Project, and the Commission itself.

Participants explored the more complex components of fair housing law, including protections for survivors of domestic violence, source of income discrimination, reasonable accommodations, legal ramifications—both civil and criminal—of noncompliance, and best practices to ensure compliance. Firsthand accounts from investigators and prosecutors offered a compelling look into the real-world impact of fair housing enforcement.

The Commission will host its third and final Fair Housing Symposium on October 30, 2025, at Cape Fear Community College in Wilmington, NC.
