How long can a landlord refuse to rent to you because you have a felonie on your record?

Forever.
A landlord has no obligation to rent to a particular individual.
There are a limited number of reasons that cannot be used for refusing to rent (or hire, etc.).
They include race, national origin, color, sexual orientation (in many places), gender, and some more (check your local laws).
Criminal record is definitely not a protected status.
I suggest you move on and keep trying until you find one.
You can find one. It may feel like a lot of work but life is full of hard work for everybody, not just felons.
The more years go by, the more you have a chance to have landlords happy with you and then they will write a letter of recommendation, making the record look in the distant past.
