National company gets caught taking kickbacks

A big company in Minnesota got caught directing their buyers and sellers to their captive real estate title company. It cost buyers a couple hundred dollars more than other providers.

It also violated their fiduciary duty to their client.

Imagine a doctor who decides what pharmacy to send you to based on his or her ownership in the pharmacy.

Here is a like to a Washington Post article on the scam and how it became a class action law suit.
