Under Georgia Fair Housing Law (O.C.G.A. Title 8, Chapter 3, Article 4), a homeowner selling a single-family residence may qualify for an exemption from certain fair housing requirements. Which of the following actions would cause the homeowner to LOSE any available exemption?

Correct Answer

B) Publishing an advertisement that indicates a racial preference

Under Georgia Fair Housing Law, discriminatory advertising is prohibited regardless of any exemption that might otherwise apply.

Answer Options
A
Selling without using a real estate agent and without any advertising
B
Publishing an advertisement that indicates a racial preference
C
Owner-occupying a duplex and renting the other unit without a broker
D
Selling the property to a personal acquaintance through a private transaction
