## Resource

Rent prices may be getting a major shakeup as the Department of Justice investigates property management giants accused of colluding to keep rents artificially high. A $7 million settlement with LivCor—allegedly using RealPage software to secretly coordinate prices with other landlords—marks a key moment, but the broader legal battle continues. Renters stand to benefit if these anti-competitive tactics are stopped, though the full impact remains uncertain until courts rule and funds are distributed.
