Question

An owner of a fifty unit apartment building where the majority of the tenants are young professionals puts an ad in the paper that reads: "Adults Only".

a. Its legal because over 80% of the units are occupied by young adults.
b. This violates Truth-In-Lending.
c. Its legal because he's the owner.
d. This violates Fair Housing.

Answer 1

The correct answer is d. This violates Fair Housing.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is d. This violates Fair Housing.

According to the Fair Housing Act, it is illegal to discriminate against people based on protected characteristics, including age. The advertisement stating 'Adults Only' violates this law by excluding potential tenants based on their age. The owner cannot enforce an age restriction without violating Fair Housing laws.
