Which statement regarding fair housing in Wisconsin is INCORRECT?

The statement regarding licensees refusing to show a listed single-family home to a female buyer is incorrect because it violates fair housing laws. In Wisconsin, as in many other jurisdictions, the Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination based on sex, among other protected classes. This means that a real estate licensee cannot refuse service or show properties to someone based solely on their gender.

The principles of fair housing are designed to ensure that all individuals have the right to access housing opportunities without discrimination. This includes a broad array of protections that ensure equal treatment in real estate transactions regardless of personal characteristics. The other statements reflect correct interpretations of fair housing laws, which affirm the rights of all individuals to equal access to housing, mandate non-discriminatory advertising practices, and prohibit refusals based on family status. Thus, the statement about refusing to show a home to a female buyer stands out as incorrect in the context of fair housing regulations.
