Which act protects consumers from misleading advertisements in real estate?

The correct answer is the Consumer Protection Act. This act is specifically designed to safeguard consumers from unfair, deceptive, or misleading advertisements in various sectors, including real estate. Under the Consumer Protection Act, consumers have the right to expect that advertisements provide truthful and accurate representations, which is essential for making informed decisions in real estate transactions.

While the Fair Housing Act primarily addresses discrimination in housing, the Kentucky Real Estate License Law governs the licensing and conduct of real estate professionals, and the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act focuses on the disclosure of settlement costs and procedures associated with purchasing real estate. None of these laws are primarily concerned with protecting consumers from misleading advertisements in the same broad and direct manner as the Consumer Protection Act.
