Property Management
A NH property manager receives an application from a prospective tenant. The manager must evaluate the application based on:
AThe manager's subjective preference
BConsistent, non-discriminatory criteria such as credit history, income, and rental history✓ Correct
CThe applicant's physical appearance
DOnly the applicant's criminal background
Explanation
Property managers must apply consistent, objective, non-discriminatory screening criteria to all applicants—such as income requirements, credit standards, and rental history checks. Applying different standards based on protected characteristics (race, sex, national origin, etc.) violates fair housing law.
