That's perfectly ok. Liberty is about freedom, freedom of choice being one of them.
Any business can refuse service to any one. Otherwise, this sign would be pointless.

"Police protection" is an oxymoron. Gun laws are like masturbation, they both feel really good, but after you're done you realize you haven't accomplished anything."

If you think, in this housing market, any real estate agent will turn down a half million dollar sale because of the race of the buyer it is YOU who is delusional.

It is the choice of the seller what they sell their home at, not the agent, so blockbusting (yes I've heard of it) is irrelevant. Again, freedom of choice. Mortgage redlining is so rare its not even spoken of.
The fair housing act of 1968 made redlining illegal in the US.
