When you are selling or renting a property, you want to avoid running afoul of the various anti-discrimination provisions. Even if the Federal Government does not think you are worth going after, an aggrieved potential buyer or renter could bring their own lawsuit and hit your wallet. Not to mention that some organizations, including government agencies, send undercover folks to see if they can find examples of discrimination.
Don't let your mistake on one day be the basis of legal trouble. Instead, read up on the laws and stay clear of the kind of questions or comments that can get you in hot water.
