Answer: It is illegal under Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA).

Explanation: RESPA is the acronym for the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act. It is a federal consumer protection law enacted by the United States government, which is directed by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

However, one of the major reasons of the enactment of this law is to prevent or stop some unlawful practices done by real estate settlement provider. Such unlawful practices include kickbacks and referral fees, that in turn causes increase in settlement costs for home buyers.

Hence, Gary’s payment to Stacy for the referral is considered illegal.

The measure that compares the number of men to women in a population is ______.
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:    Sex ratio

Explanation:  The sex ratio or the gender ratio, as some argue, because according to some scientists these two terms are not interchangeable, is the ratio between the number of men and the number of women in the population. This ratio varies and depends on the type of society, i.e. it depends on economic, social, cultural, biological and technological conditions. The ratio of genders in the population, that is, the number of men and women can be affected by migration, higher mortality in some of the gender, as well as the average length of the life of the genders.
