InterFace Panel: Multifamily Operators Are Utilizing Fee Transparency, Concessions to Woo Renters

by John Nelson

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The federal government has been cracking down on price gouging in recent months. Last month, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) implemented a rule to ban “junk fees” from live event platforms like Ticketmaster, as well as hotels and other short-term lodging. This rule precludes the vendor or property owner/management firm from being able to charge hidden fees on the back end by requiring them to put the total cost upfront, inclusive of all mandatory fees and charges. And in January, the U.S. Justice Department (DOJ), along with 10 state attorneys general, followed up on its 2023 antitrust lawsuit with RealPage by adding six of the nation’s largest property managers to the lawsuit. Editor’s note: InterFace Conference Group, a division of France Media Inc., produces networking and educational conferences for commercial real estate executives. To sign up for email announcements about specific events, visit www.interfaceconferencegroup.com/subscribe. The amended complaint alleges that the companies — Greystar; Blackstone’s LivCor LLC; Camden Property Trust; Cushman & Wakefield Inc. (formerly operating independently as Pinnacle); Willow Bridge Property Co. (formerly Lincoln Residential); and Cortland Management LLC (Cortland) — used RealPage’s pricing algorithms via the company’s YieldStar platform to share sensitive data and coordinate pricing strategies, …
