"DOJ Reopens Antitrust Probe Into Realtors Association, Court Rules in Favor"
TL;DR Summary
The Justice Department will reopen an antitrust investigation into the National Association of Realtors, focusing on whether the group's rules inflate the cost of selling a home. This comes after a U.S. Court of Appeals ruling overturned a lower-court decision and follows a recent settlement over real estate agent commissions. The investigation presents another challenge for N.A.R., which is already facing legal action over alleged antitrust violations.
