CHIN, Circuit Judge:
In this putative class action, plaintiffs-appellants allege that defendants-appellees — title insurance companies — sold title insurance at improperly inflated rates as a result of illegal kickbacks in violation of the anti-kickback provision of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (“RES-PA”). See RESPA § 8(a), 12 U.S.C. § 2607(a) (“§ 8(a)”). The district court (Platt, J.) dismissed the action. Plaintiffs appeal. For the reasons set forth below, we affirm.
