Sec. 3. All persons with disabilities are entitled to full
and equal access, as other members of the public, to all housing
accommodations offered for rent, lease, or compensation in Indiana.

Plain English

Indiana Code § 22-9-6-3 establishes that people with disabilities have the same right to access housing accommodations—whether rented, leased, or offered for compensation—as any other member of the public. The provision applies broadly to all housing offered in Indiana and does not permit distinctions based on disability status when it comes to access. This rule reflects a baseline guarantee of equal treatment in the housing market.

For Property Managers

Under Ind. Code § 22-9-6-3, operators of rental housing in Indiana are expected to extend the same access and consideration to prospective and current tenants with disabilities as they would to any other member of the public. Compliant property managers generally avoid policies, practices, or conditions that would restrict or discourage access to housing on the basis of disability. Reviewing leasing procedures and property access conditions against this standard is a common practice among operators seeking to remain in compliance.

For Tenants

Ind. Code § 22-9-6-3 affirms that tenants and prospective tenants with disabilities are entitled to full and equal access to rental housing in Indiana, on the same terms as anyone else. If you believe this right has been denied—such as through a refusal to rent or unequal treatment in the leasing process—general enforcement paths include filing a complaint with a relevant state or federal fair housing agency or reaching out to a local tenant-rights or disability-rights organization for information. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development also accepts fair housing complaints that may relate to rights protected under provisions like § 22-9-6-3.
