I don't think you become homeless but the options certainly decrease by a lot and the quality won't be as good. Anti-discrimination laws are on the basis of, e.g., race, disability, or family status. Unless there are state laws against checking previous court cases, I don't think there's anything stopping that as a basis for refusing to lease a place.
Damn that's brutal. Do they treat landlords the same way? If you get caught stealing security deposits, you weren't allowed to rent to people anymore? I guess I wouldn't mind if it went both ways...
