Under the Illinois Human Rights Act, which of the following properties is NOT eligible for any exemption from the Act's fair housing provisions?

Correct Answer

D) A six-unit apartment building managed by a third-party property management company

Under the Illinois Human Rights Act (775 ILCS 5/3-106), the owner-occupancy exemption applies only to owner-occupied residential buildings containing four or fewer units. A six-unit apartment building exceeds this threshold and therefore does not qualify for any exemption — regardless of whether it is managed by the owner or a third-party company. All provisions of the Illinois Human Rights Act's housing article apply in full to this property.

Answer Options
A
An owner-occupied two-flat where the owner resides in one unit and rents the other
B
An owner-occupied three-unit building where the owner lives in one unit
C
A single room rented within an owner-occupied single-family residence
D
A six-unit apartment building managed by a third-party property management company
