Under the Fair Housing Act, a property owner who lives in a single-family home and sells it themselves (FSBO) is exempt from the prohibition on discrimination ONLY if they:
AHave owned the home for less than 2 years
BDo not use a broker and do not use discriminatory advertising — even then, race discrimination is never exempt✓ Correct
COnly sell to owner-occupants
DAre 65 years of age or older
Explanation
The single-family home FSBO exemption from some FHA provisions requires: no broker is used AND no discriminatory advertising. Even with this exemption, race discrimination is NEVER permitted under the Civil Rights Act of 1866.
