Re: Realty ethics, or lack of.
This is called a "preferred vendor" arrangement. The legality of it depends on how it is managed. The federal government [HUD] has in the past busted some high profile broker house [real estate offices] for doing this. It may violate federal law. To find out, contact HUD and your state's Attorney General office, and tell them about it. It's always worth the fight. Wrong is wrong. Always has been, always will be.
