> [RealPage] Chief Executive Dana Jones said that the company’s software helps both landlords and renters, and that the root causes of rising rents are the lack of affordable housing, increasing demand and inflationary costs of building and insuring housing.

Yep. I do wonder how much the finger-pointing at companies like RealPage is an attempt to distract people from the actual reasons why real estate is so expensive here.

That being said, if RealPage and others are essentially helping landlords do price-fixing, they do need to face consequences, along with the landlords using their services.
