Missouri Law Review: Kansas City Premier Apartments, Inc. v. Mo ...

Kansas City Premier Apartments, Inc., a corporation offering advertising and other services through its website, challenged Revised Statutes of Missouri §§ 339.010.1 and 339.010.7, which require a real estate license to perform certain activities. It contended that not only was it exempt from the statutes but also that the statutes violated numerous provisions of the United States and Missouri Constitutions. The free speech challenge is the issue of primary interest. The majority determined the relevant subsections under § 339.010 were permissible regulations of commercial speech. Meanwhile, the dissent unleashed an attack on the entire occupational licensing statutory scheme, and ultimately concluded that under a very recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling, the statute was unconstitutional as a violation of the First Amendment. The Missouri Real Estate Commission, the agency responsible for enforcing the statutes and regulations relating to the real estate profession, received a complaint against Kansas City Premier Apartments, Inc. ("KCPA"), an unlicensed company.[2] After conducting an investigation of the complaint, the Commission determined that KCPA was engaging in activities requiring a real estate license.[3] Accordingly, the Commission sent a letter to KCPA informing it that its activities required that it obtain a license and that it must cease such activities until it obtained a valid license.[4] In the most basic sense, KCPA assists property owners in locating prospective tenants.
