Ward Tyczka was renting his Phoenix condo to a family with two children when the property manager began raising concerns.
The family eventually moved out when their lease was up, but the property manager informed him this spring that Sunrise Village Condominiums Association had changed its rules to prohibit kids under age 16.
Tyczka filed a lawsuit in Maricopa County Superior Court against the association and its manager, saying the new rule discriminated against tenants based on age and tied his hands in legally renting or selling the condo.
The lawsuit also cites emails in which the property manager highlights that the family renting his condo is black.
