In this conversation, Ethan Glass, a partner with Cooley Law Firm, discusses the complexities of antitrust in the housing market. As an antitrust expert and litigator with about eight years of experience with the Department of Justice (DOJ), Ethan was able to give a broad perspective on legal actions against multifamily revenue management, including:
The stages of litigation, the role of discovery, and the differences between private and DOJ cases.
The commercial drivers and processes behind private suits, like the class actions affecting multifamily.
The DoJ's legal rationale, the details of its lawsuit, and why they suggest a more speculative strategy than we might expect.
The changing application of antitrust laws, which were created in a different economic context.
Why multifamily companies should balance risks and benefits rather than just comply with 'no' advice.
Why the multifamily industry must stand firm in the face of these lawsuits.

The multifamily industry needs innovation, and tech innovation needs DATA. This conversation with Remen Okoruwa, CEO of Propexo, takes a tech ecosystem perspective on the revenue management lawsuits.
Propexo is making it easy for companies to address the thing that keeps so many of us up at night...integrations. That gives Remen a unique perspective on some of the unintended consequences of the RM lawsuits, including:
The impact of regulatory actions on innovation in technology.
The DOJ's legal framework poses risks for AI solutions that rely heavily on data aggregation for effectiveness
How multifamily organizations are already reacting to legal pressures by restricting data aggregation
How the industry is becoming more collaborative, not less, and why that matters for tech innovation
How proactive industry standards could help protect valuable technologies

There’s a time and a place for competitor data, and a multifamily pricing algorithm is not it! In this latest episode in our Revenue Management deep-dive series Dom geeks out with OG multifamily RM guru Donald Davidoff, using examples from multiple different industries to explain how RM algorithms work. We talk about where comp data is helpful and where it isn’t. If you’re trying to make sense of the current focus on comp data you won’t want to miss this episode, which includes:
What competitor data is useful for and what it isn't
The evolution of revenue management systems and what's similar and different about multifamily
What makes a good RM algorithm, and how in multifamily, it is about understanding demand and supply (more than comp pricing)
Common industry misconceptions about what RM has to do with rent increases
Why competitor data should be seen as a guardrail rather than the primary driver in pricing decisions
The risk of over-indexing on competitor data, leading to misguided RM strategies

This episode is a conversation with Jay Ezrielev, a legal consultant and lecturer in antitrust law, who previously worked in the FTC. Jay has written eloquently about the Department of Justice’s legal action relating to revenue management, and his concerns for the broader implications for the industry, including:
The unusually broad application of antitrust doctrine and the potential impact on technology and data sharing across industries.
Why this is incompatible with the increasing use of AI for improving efficiency in many industries, including multifamily
The politics and motivations behind the case and the potential outcomes
Why it is important to push back against the action and develop an alternative narrative that highlights the benefits of RM
