Answer & Explanation: Lena would respond to the buyer's request of wanting a house in the Cuban neighborhood by explaining to her that legally and ethically, she cannot provide housing recommendations based on national origin as it is a form of housing discrimination which is enshrined in the Fair Housing Act. The Act can take several forms, one of which is discrimination based on national origin.
