Fair Housing

Which of the following advertising statements is ILLEGAL under the Fair Housing Act?

A'Quiet neighborhood, great schools'
B'No Section 8 accepted'✓ Correct
C'2-bedroom, 1-bath, near shopping'
D'Perfect for professionals'

Explanation

Advertising 'No Section 8 accepted' may be considered discriminatory because Section 8 voucher recipients are disproportionately members of protected classes. While Section 8 participation is not a federally protected class, HUD and many states view such language as indicative of discriminatory intent.
