Fair Housing Request

Request a Reasonable Accommodation or Modification

Applicants and current Residents may use the form below to request a disability-related change, exception, adjustment, or physical modification needed to use and enjoy a rental home.

Requests may include an assistance animal, an alternative communication method, an exception or adjustment to a rule or process, or a physical modification such as grab bars.

No cost to submit There is no fee to submit a reasonable accommodation or modification request.

Assistance animals are not pets Service animals and other disability-related assistance animals use this process rather than the household-pet approval process.

Alternative methods are available If the online form is not accessible or practical, contact Rice Real Estate & Property Management for help submitting a request another way.

Medical privacy: You do not need to disclose a specific diagnosis or submit complete medical records. When the disability or disability-related need is not obvious, Rice Real Estate & Property Management may request reliable information reasonably necessary to evaluate the request.

For help completing or submitting a request, please contact Rice Real Estate & Property Management .

For more information about Fair Housing and reasonable accommodations, review our Fair Housing and Formal Complaint Policy .

What type of reasonable accommodation or modification are you requesting?(Required)

Note: Submit one request for each assistance animal. Each assistance animal needs only one profile on file with Rice Real Estate & Property Management. Do not submit a duplicate profile for the same animal. Nevada Revised Statute (NRS) 426.805 makes it a misdemeanor to fraudulently misrepresent an animal as a service animal or service animal in training.

Support Animal

A support animal is trained or untrained animals other than Service Animals that do work, perform tasks, provide assistance, and/or provide therapeutic emotional support for individuals with disabilities. Support animals are commonly referred to as emotional support animals, companion animals, comfort animals, etc.

Service Animal

A service animal is any dog that is individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability, including a physical, sensory, psychiatric, intellectual, or other mental disability. Other species of animal, whether wild or domestic, trained or untrained, are not service animals for purposes of this definition. The work or tasks performed by a service animal must be directly related to the individual’s disability. Work or tasks does not include providing emotional support.
