No one has violated the fair housing laws.

Explanation:

That's because according to The Fair Housing Act, 42 U. S. C. 3601 et seq., only the discrimination by direct providers, real estate companies or other entities that have the power over a house and they take it out off the market or make it unavailable to another person because his race, color, religion, sex, nationality, origin, familial status, or disability; it's violating the Fair Housing.

And by the example that we have, we can see that none of the discrimination types from above are happening.
