location/neighborhood, property features, and price range and other considerations, to all prospects.
B.
Real estate licensees should provide complete and objective information to all clients based on the client's selection criteria.
C.
Real estate licensees should provide the same professional courtesy in responding to inquiries, sharing of information and
offers of assistance to all clients and prospects.

discrimination regarding any protected characteristic (such as “no children” or “English-speakers only”).
E.
Housing providers should use a selection process relying on objective information about a prospective buyer's offer or tenant's
application and not seek any information that may disclose any protected characteristics (such as using a summary document,
e.g. C.A.R. Form SUM-MO, to compare multiple offers on objective terms).

purposes, PROVIDED no real estate licensee is involved in the rental;

licensee is involved in the sale or rental and (ii) no discriminatory advertising is used, and (iii) the owner owns no more than
three single-family residences. Other restrictions apply;
