Here is a link to what the DOJ has to say about offering rebates to consumers in the real estate industry:
http://www.usdoj.gov/atr/public/real_estate/rebates.htm
The Department of Justice has repeatedly shown that rebates are good for consumers and create healthy competition.
A few thoughts...
- Rebates are widely accepted in most industries outside of real estate, they provide a benefit to those who are willing to take the time to follow a few instrustions.
- Even within the real estate industry they are legal in at least 40 of the United States.
And the Alaska Real Estate Commission is trying to tell me that rebates are inherently fraudulent?
More to come...
