- A group of lawsuits accuse large landlords of price-fixing the market rate of rent in the United States
- A complaint filed by Washington D.C.’s Attorney General alleges 14 landlords in the district are sharing competitively sensitive data through RealPage, a real estate software provider

A group of renters in the U.S. say their landlords are using software to deliver inflated rent hikes.
“We’ve been told as tenants by employees of Equity that the software takes empathy out of the equation. So they can charge whatever the software tells them to charge,” said Kevin Weller, a tenant at Portside Towers since 2021.
Tenants say the management started to increase prices substantially after giving renters concessions during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Reread this conversation. I never actually attacked you. I just implied that your uncle is going to get whats coming to him, and sure, I misunderstood you but that’s all. I don’t think the crime of “related to a landlord” means you deserve to be sent to a gulag lol
Now you’re crawling up my ass because we had a miscommunication. I still say anyone who is related to a landlord should denounce them clearly, but now that the miscommunication is cleared up we have no problems. You don’t have to be so mad. 🙃
