Fair Housing
A NH real estate firm's office policy that only assigns senior agents to high-income clients and junior agents to lower-income clients may create disparate impact concerns if:
AAll agents are equally licensed
BThe policy systematically results in protected class members receiving less experienced representation✓ Correct
CThe firm is not a member of NAR
DAll clients give written consent
Explanation
If a seemingly neutral assignment policy results in protected class members consistently receiving less experienced representation (disparate impact), it may violate the Fair Housing Act — even without discriminatory intent.
