The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), along with a group of state co-plaintiffs, has expanded an antitrust lawsuit against RealPage Inc. to six more of the nation’s largest landlords. According to the Nashville Business Journal, the expanded case accuses all of the companies of harming renters. The complaint alleges the landlords "actively participated in a scheme" to set rents based on each other’s competitively sensitive information through shared pricing algorithms. At least two of the landlords named in the complaint deny the allegations and plan to defend against the claims. Tennessee had joined the original federal antitrust lawsuit against RealPage in August.
