Fair Housing
A real estate agent who advertises only in English-language publications in a community with a large Spanish-speaking population may be:
AA. Within their rights — advertising in any language is optional
BB. Engaging in discriminatory advertising that limits housing choices based on national origin✓ Correct
CC. Following best practices by targeting the most likely buyers
DD. Required by law to advertise in all languages
Explanation
Limiting advertising to one language in a diverse market can have a discriminatory effect by excluding persons of certain national origins from learning about housing opportunities. HUD guidance suggests advertising in languages spoken in the market area.
