Unfair Real Estate Practices Alleged in Lawsuit

The Advocate reports that Brandy Farris Real Estate has filed suit against C.J. Brown Realtors, Burns and Co., Inc. and the Greater Baton Rouge Association of Realtors alleging claims of unfair trade practices, antitrust violations and other questionable business dealings. Farris alleges that the defendants have conspired to fix real-estate commissions at six percent and have disparaged her company for implementing a "flex" policy where commissions might vary from three to seven percent.
