The purpose of Subchapters G - L of this chapter is to establish procedures for CRD to execute its responsibilities in the administration and enforcement of the Texas Fair Housing Act. Texas provides, within constitutional limitations, for fair housing throughout the state and provides rights and remedies substantially equivalent to those granted under federal law. No person shall be subject to discriminatory housing practices based on race, color, disability, religion, sex, national origin, or familial status in the sale, rental, advertising of dwellings, inspection of dwellings, entry into a neighborhood, in the provision of brokerage services, or in the availability of residential real estate-related transactions.
