I'm really so sorry that she found a way to make this miserable process even more miserable for you, sj.

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Safe travels to all the Miracleborns. I'm going to miss you something fierce, and LA just isn't going to be the same without you. We will be something less than what we once were.
Evidence is important in these things. Do you have an obviously disabled friend who could ask about renting, so you have an additional witness. Don't know about the law on hidden cameras or tape recorders. Worth finding out, cause if it is legal you can get cheap portable recorders for under $30 at office max, and they are never the lowest price in town.
Safe travel to the Miracleborns.
I jusr had a woman tell me to my face in no uncertain terms that she wouldn't rent to us because of my disability.
This woman needs a big, fat fine. I want to smack her. I want her to know she's breaking the law.
I took a tumble off our back steps and twisted my ankle tonight. I am an ungainly beast.
Travel~ma for the Miracleborns.
Egad, sj. That's all I have to add.
This woman needs a big, fat fine. I want to smack her. I want her to know she's breaking the law.
I did calmly mention to her that she was breaking the law, at which point she gave us a look of, "I'm old and I can do what I want."
Oh, and did I mention there was a real estate agent with us at the time?
Oooooooh. A witness.
This gets interesting.
She's his client, which probably makes things more complicated, but it isn't just our word against hers.
I would ask him to do something about it, and if he refuses, you have another target. He's potentially both better positioned to report it than you and more at risk than the bigot if it goes unaddressed.
that is good. You know, I wonder if she is a good enough client for the agent to commit perjury for her? Doesn't sound like a big client. And the agent may even have professional ethics that would prevent perjury. Not guaranteeing it or anything, but it could happen.
