Your rights
North Carolina Housing Rules
The federal Fair Housing Act covers most rentals in North Carolina, including buildings with a no-pets policy.
Your landlord has to consider a written request backed by a real letter. They can call the professional who signed it to check that it's real. They can say no in a few narrow cases, like if your specific animal is dangerous or would cause serious damage.
They generally can't charge a pet fee or pet deposit, ask for your exact diagnosis, demand your full medical records, or make you use their own form. You still pay for any real damage.
If a North Carolina landlord turns you down and you think that was wrong, you can file a complaint with HUD or your state fair housing agency. Talk to a fair housing lawyer first if you can.
