1/4 of California state lawmakers are landlords. If a user of this software doesn't want to charge as much as the algorithm says, it gets escalated and RealPage tries to sell them on the price.

Yeah, it's pretty similar where I'm at too. Unfortunately, the nature of being a legislator means you can only become one if you don't need to work a regular job. And landlording is certainly one of those jobs that gives you free time to campaign and work as a legislator.
