arrow The Seattle hub of Compass Real Estate via Wikipedia Many of New York City s most dominant real estate companies are illegally discriminating against low-income residents who rely on rental assistance, according to the findings of a year-long undercover investigation released on Monday. Led by the Housing Rights Initiative, the sweeping investigation identified 88 landlords and brokerages that allegedly discriminated against tenants seeking apartments with Section 8 vouchers, which provide federal financial assistance to help low-income residents cover part of their rent.

When those otherwise qualified testers mentioned their Section 8 voucher, the real estate professionals ended the conversation 48 percent of the time, according to HRI.
