Compass, Inc. (COMP) saw its shares drop sharply by 5.06% during intraday trading on Monday, as the real estate agency faced negative publicity linked to a high-profile property listing.
The decline follows news that singer Lily Allen and actor David Harbour, represented by Compass, have cut the price of their Brooklyn townhouse by $695,000 amid their acrimonious divorce. The property, initially listed for $7.99 million, is now priced at $7.3 million, raising concerns about Compass's ability to manage high-value listings effectively.
The high-profile nature of the listing and the associated negative press may have contributed to investor concerns about the company's reputation and future business prospects.
