blockbusting (to white HO) [focus seller to get listing]
Blockbusting was a business practice of U.S. real estate agents and building developers
meant to encourage white property owners to sell their houses at a loss, by fraudulently
implying that racial, ethnic, or religious minorities — Blacks, Hispanics, Jews et al. —
were moving into their previously racially segregated neighborhood, thus depressing real
estate property values.[1]

Failing, on the basis of race, to show, or to inform buyers of homes that meet their
specifications[1]
