In 1977 redlining was outlawed by the Community Reinvestment Act. The Act provided that commercial banks and savings institutions have an obligation to help serve the credit needs of their entire community, including low and moderate income borrowers. It also required that those institutions serve the needs in a manner that was consistent with safe and sound banking practices. In other words, the credit worthiness of the borrower was still to be considered in the loan process. The CRA was responding to the perception that savings and loan associations and banks were “redlining†low-income and minority areas, in effect denying credit to areas based on their perceived characteristics rather than the actual creditworthiness of individual loan applications.
The Fair Housing Act of 1968 outlawed redlining, a discriminatory practice of refusing mortgages or insurance based on location. This law aimed to make it illegal to deny housing opportunities to individuals based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
Most discrimination based on race, religion, sex, or national origin was outlawed by the Civil Rights Act of 1964 in the United States. This landmark legislation prohibits discrimination in areas such as employment, education, and public accommodations based on these protected characteristics.
The Wilderness Act of 1964 was a key legislation that helped protect and preserve wilderness areas in the United States by establishing the National Wilderness Preservation System. The Act set requirements for the protection and management of wilderness areas, ensuring that these areas would remain wild and undeveloped for future generations.

It is not common for homeowner's associations to grant mortgages. However, a quick check in the land records under the name of the association would reveal any mortgages. In some cases a HOA may hold title to conservation areas, buffers or common areas and in that case they may have the authority to grant mortgages. This would be more likely in a planned community rather than a condominium project.
Redlining in real estate refers to when a lender denies mortgage loans, or charges more for mortgage loans, based on a particular geographic location, such as a neighborhood. The term "redlining" was coined by John McKnight in the 1960s and is used because it represents categorizing areas where banks would not lend by drawing a red line on a map around such a neighborhood. The practice is illegal because the criteria for extending credit is supposed to be based on financial characteristics of the individual, not on where the individual lives. Lenders who practiced redlining in the past often used it to discriminate against lower income neighborhoods, which typically housed minority populations.
