It’s almost a cliché to say that real estate is all about location, location, location, but as every Realtor® knows, it is absolutely true. Where a house, business or empty lot is situated can make all the difference in whether or not the business or house sells quickly at a fair price. The location to other properties, services, amenities and even the general population are all factors to consider. The same holds true with fair housing. It’s not only the residence that matters when housing opportunity and equality is discussed, but the quality of the neighborhood, too.
