Can I advertise my rental for a single person?

[Carmel Duffy]

I have a small sf home for rent which is only 500 square feet.

When prospective tenants call me and ask questions, I tell them the place is very small, only one closet for storage, really just big enough for a single person.

I have had a couple people say "so you won't rent to families?

I then tell them "There is not enough room for a family. "

I have had a couple people making comments that this is illegal.

Thanks for anyone's advice!
