Fair Housing
A Colorado landlord who owns 10 single-family rental homes refuses to rent to families with children. Are they exempt from the Fair Housing Act?
AYes, single-family home rentals are always exempt
BNo — only single-family homes sold or rented by the owner without a broker may qualify for the exemption, and only for up to 3 owned homes✓ Correct
CYes, since the units are not in a multi-family building
DNo — there is no exemption for familial status
Explanation
The single-family home exemption from the Fair Housing Act requires: the owner personally owns 3 or fewer single-family homes, no broker is used, and no discriminatory advertising is used. Owning 10 homes disqualifies this landlord from the exemption.
