This bill would strengthen fair housing rules in Massachusetts by requiring real estate agents and brokers to complete more training on housing discrimination, both for initial licenses and renewals. The state would publish annual summaries of complaints and disciplinary actions, while keeping private information confidential. If an agent or broker is found by a court or fair housing agency to have discriminated, their license would be suspended, with longer suspensions for repeat offenses. These measures aim to increase transparency, hold real estate professionals accountable, and improve equal access to housing statewide.
