Fair Housing
An Alaska newspaper publishes a real estate advertisement that shows photos of only white families. This potentially violates fair housing advertising rules because:
AOnly licensed real estate agents may advertise property
BUsing images suggesting a racial preference for residents violates the FHA's prohibition on discriminatory advertising✓ Correct
CNewspaper advertising for real estate is not regulated by the FHA
DThe FHA only regulates in-person conduct, not advertising
Explanation
HUD's advertising guidelines prohibit the use of images, symbols, language, or models that indicate a preference or limitation based on race or other protected classes. Using only white family images in real estate advertising may indicate a racial preference for potential buyers.
