In a statement, Realogy denied Compass’ accusation
In a new court filing, Compass said Realogy’s top executives conspired in a desperate campaign to impede its growth, which ultimately turned agents and homeowners into “collateral damage.”
“They have waged a war of disinformation by deliberately flooding the market with false information about Compass,” Compass said in a counterclaim to Realogy’s 2019 lawsuit. “And they have promoted anti-competitive and retributive conduct to impede the free movement of agents and employees.”
