Apartment Rejection for No Reason

Apartment complex shutting down communication for asking too many questions?

A nice apartment complex with 70+ units with high reviews is suddenly telling me they don't have what I'm looking for and "better luck searching elsewhere" 2 months in advance to when I'm wanting to move in, which doesn't make sense to me for any reason other than I've probably asked more questions about details they consider a hassle (cabinet handles, bathroom light fixtures) and I'm trying to rent remotely, so I asked for a video-walk through and some more photos. I haven't as-of-yet filled out an application, so there's been no credit or background check, and their rental agent isn't known to me, so there's no personal history with anyone on the property.

I'm sorry if I've asked too many questions, I don't require that they are all answered, but I still really want to rent from this property (very pretty property and good price and generally good ratings online). I don't have reason to believe I'm being discriminated against for "protected class" reasons, I feel they probably think I'm not worth their time since it would probably take more work to do a video walk through, etc.

I called the company that owns this property and talked to a someone there who seemed helpful, then called the property, then called back and they said they have no problems with the conversation being shut-down except for reason pertaining to the Fair Housing Act. This is baffling to me.

What should I do?
