Fair Housing
A prospective homebuyer tells an agent they only want to see homes in a specific neighborhood of their choice. The agent should:
ARefuse because this limits protected-class choices
BHonor the buyer's stated preference and show homes in that area✓ Correct
CShow homes throughout the metro area to avoid fair housing issues
DReport the buyer to HUD
Explanation
When a buyer expresses a genuine preference for a specific area (not based on the demographics of an area they want to avoid), the agent should honor that preference. Fair housing prohibits agents from imposing preferences, not honoring clients' legitimate preferences.
