Hey Brenda! Inducement is the ability of an individual or an entity to persuade or lead someone to do something. Discriminatory inducement, as a general term, is more specifically targeting one's ability to persuade someone to discriminate against another. In real estate, it can refer to the fact that some real estate transactions are taking place as a result of unfair prejudice. The efforts of one to convince another to buy, sell or lease because of discriminatory reasons is a discriminatory inducement. Money is usually involved but it is not directly connected with the term.
