For Property Managers

Under Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. ch. 186-2 § 186-2-.07, landlords and property managers who rent or sell residential housing are required to display the prescribed fair housing poster in a prominent location where prospective tenants or buyers can readily see it. Compliant operators typically place the poster in leasing offices, lobbies, or other public-facing spaces where housing transactions are conducted. Businesses involved in real estate-related transactions, such as financing or brokerage, are similarly expected to post the notice at each participating place of business.

For Tenants

Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. ch. 186-2 § 186-2-.07 gives tenants and housing seekers the right to expect a visible fair housing poster wherever housing is being offered for rent or sale. The absence of this poster at a rental office or place of business may indicate a broader pattern of non-compliance with the Georgia Fair Housing Law. Individuals who believe their fair housing rights have been violated can explore options such as filing a complaint with a relevant fair housing agency or consulting a tenant-rights organization for guidance on available remedies.
