Property Management
A NH property manager is approached by a prospective tenant who appears to be under the influence of alcohol during the showing. The manager may:
AImmediately reject the application due to apparent substance use
BProcess the application using standard non-discriminatory screening criteria without making assumptions based on one observation✓ Correct
CReport the applicant to NH DHHS
DRequire the applicant to sign a sobriety pledge
Explanation
A single observation is insufficient grounds to deny housing. Alcoholism can be a disability protected under fair housing law. The manager should apply standard, consistent screening criteria (credit, income, rental history) and not make housing decisions based on assumptions about disability or perceived behavior.
