To raise a little grocery money, Reynolds decides to rent a spare bedroom in her single‑family house to a tenant for $50 per month. When a 24-year‑old man asks to see the room, Reynolds refuses, telling him that she will only rent to women over the age of 50. The prospective tenant threatens to sue for a violation of the Fair Housing Act. Should Reynolds be concerned? Group of answer choices Yes; the amount of rent being charged is immaterial for purposes of the Fair Housing Act. Yes; while Reynolds is permitted to exclude individuals on the basis of age or sex, she cannot exclude on the basis of both. No; the rental of rooms in an owner occupied single family home is exempt from the Fair Housing Act. No; as a private American citizen, Reynolds is free to discriminate on the basis of any of the normally protected classes.
