ALawful since landlords control their property
BA potential violation of familial status protections unless the community qualifies for the senior housing exemption✓ Correct
CLawful only if disclosed in the lease
DLawful for communities of 10 or fewer units
Explanation
'Adults Only' or 'No Children' advertising violates the Fair Housing Act's familial status protections unless the community qualifies as senior housing under HUD's rules (55+ community meeting specific criteria, or a HUD-designated retirement community). Without the proper senior housing designation, refusing families with children is illegal familial status discrimination.
