On some reflection, I don’t understand how this app ever makes it around those regulations in a form where it’s largest users can factor in advertised and actual rent prices to their prices, especially in a world of consolidation, where these companies strive to own or manage most properties in big cities.
- dd82 4y agoone bigger opinion I have is I really hope the engineers and people at this company get screwed royally by their product in the coming years. Since they're doing an excellent job of screwing people.

- treis 4y agoIt's one of those things that's such an obviously bad idea that it should be illegal regardless of the consequences. That said, I'm pretty dubious that this sort of sharing has had much of an impact. Prices at big apartment complexes aren't exactly secret. You lose some fidelity due to negotiated discounts/concessions and you lose exact occupancy information. But the publicly available information is good enough to use as comps.
