• HUD says sharing crime, school data doesn't violate Fair Housing Act (nationalmortgagenews.com) — National Harbor gets a brief mention here as the 2025 CPAC venue where HUD Secretary Scott Turner previously spoke, but the real news is a new federal letter to real estate agents. HUD now says sharing neighborhood crime and school data with buyers is allowed under the Fair Housing Act if done without discriminatory intent, while criticizing prior diversity, equity, and inclusion guidance.
