Lawsuit: Pricing algorithm inflated rental prices across country | North Carolina
SUMMARY: North Carolina’s Attorney General, along with the federal government and nine states, has filed a lawsuit against RealPage and seven property management companies, alleging they conspired to inflate rental prices through a pricing algorithm. The lawsuit claims landlords shared confidential data about rent pricing and strategies, resulting in higher rents than competitive market forces would dictate. The plaintiffs seek to declare the actions unlawful under the Sherman Act and to dismantle the alleged coordinated anticompetitive practices. Key defendants include RealPage and various property management firms across multiple states. Attorney General Jeff Jackson emphasizes the need for fair rental prices for North Carolinians.
