A federal lawsuit claims a bank and property management companies are making decisions along racial lines that negatively impact neighborhoods across Kansas City. A watchdog group called the National Fair Housing Alliance filed a lawsuit against Deutsche Bank, Ocwen Financial and Altisource for discrimination. The NFHA said the organizations take better care of foreclosed homes they own and manage in predominantly white neighborhoods, compared to foreclosed homes in predominantly black or Hispanic neighborhoods.
