Final answer:

Hispanic renters faced discrimination in the housing market according to a 2012 study, leading to them receiving information about fewer rental units and being shown fewer units than white renters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks whether Hispanic tenants were able to find places to rent. Based on the 2012 HUD and Urban Institute study, the answer is False. Hispanic renters experienced discrimination in the housing market, receiving information about 12 percent fewer units and were shown seven percent fewer units than white renters.

This discrimination was prevalent despite a decrease in more overt forms of discrimination, such as 'door slamming.' This subtler form of discrimination is harder to detect and therefore harder to remedy, leading to fewer opportunities for Hispanic tenants to find rental housing.
