Fair Housing Month is more than a moment in time to acknowledge the passage of the Fair Housing Act of 1968, which prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental and financing of housing. It is a daily commitment to creating equitable access to homeownership.
As the largest full-service residential real estate services company in the nation, Anywhere is responsible for helping people find their place to call home – and we take that role very seriously. We’re committed to building thriving, inclusive communities that fuel economic growth and prosperity alongside our industry-leading brands. Hear how our leaders focus every day on making home a possibility for us all.
“As we enter Fair Housing Month, Sotheby’s International Realty recognizes the importance of equal housing opportunities for all. It’s the foundation of strong communities. Our network of professionals across the globe uphold the highest standards of integrity and work tirelessly to support the dream of homeownership, striving to make it accessible to everyone, regardless of background or identity.”
– Tammy Fahmi, Senior Vice President, Global Servicing and Strategy, Sotheby’s International Realty
“At Coldwell Banker Realty, we are deeply committed to Fair Housing. Our real estate professionals uphold the Fair Housing Pledge and help people navigate challenges to make home ownership a reality. We proudly support amazing industry partners—NAHREP, NAREB, AREAA, and the LGBTQ+ Real Estate Alliance—who champion agents from all backgrounds.
As the homebuying demographic evolves, becoming increasingly diverse and female, it is vital to empower these groups on their journey to homeownership. I am particularly inspired by the rise of “She-Elites” as market leaders and drivers of emerging luxury hotspots, a trend highlighted in The Trend Report 2025. This trend aligns with our dedication to initiatives like What Moves Her, which uplifts and empowers women in real estate. Through our collective efforts, we are building stronger, more inclusive communities and a brighter future in homeownership.”
– Kamini Lane, President and CEO, Coldwell Banker Realty
“Enabling equitable access to home ownership is vital for the economic growth of our country. The CENTURY 21 brand is committed to equipping its network of independent agents with the knowledge, tools and resources necessary to guide their clients on this journey, regardless of racial or economic background. We are also proud to work alongside organizations like NAHREP and Easterseals, to advocate for underrepresented communities and help pave the way to homeownership for all.”
– Mike Miedler, President and CEO, Century 21 Real Estate LLC
“Everyone deserves a fair shot at owning a home. It’s not just about laws or policies—it’s about doing what’s right. When people have equal access to housing, communities grow stronger, and families have the chance to build a better future. Fair housing isn’t just important; it’s essential to making sure everyone has the same opportunity to achieve the American dream.”
– Troy Singleton, SVP, Title and Escrow Services, Anywhere Integrated Services

“At Coldwell Banker, we believe that fair housing is essential for building strong communities and broadening the dream of homeownership to all individuals. Our unwavering commitment to diversity and inclusion is evident in our efforts to enhance representation among our broker-owners and real estate professionals. By cultivating a culture of inclusion, we can better serve underrepresented groups and ensure that everyone has access to exceptional real estate services. In 2020, we launched the Inclusive Ownership Program to empower underrepresented entrepreneurs in the real estate industry. Since its inception, we have welcomed over 30 companies into the program, including entrepreneurs of color, women, LGBTQ+ individuals, and veterans. This initiative highlights our dedication to fostering a more inclusive and equitable housing market for everyone.”

I’m proud to be part of a company that champions inclusive communities, expands access to homeownership for all, and creates places where people can truly live their lives better. It’s not just our mission—it’s our responsibility.”
