American Dream Stolen By Corporations

MetLife Investment Management predicts that institutional investors could control 40% of U.S. single-family rental homes by 2030, a significant increase from the roughly 5% they held in early 2022. This surge in institutional ownership follows the single-family rental industry's expansion, which began with government backing after the 2008 financial crisis. Lawmakers, including Rep. Ro Khanna, have criticized the role of private equity and Wall Street in this market, emphasizing concerns over housing affordability and the transformation of potential homeowners into perpetual renters. The industry's defenders argue their market share isn't large enough to influence rental prices significantly, despite notable rent increases in Sun Belt states. However, with rising housing inflation and the potential for a market correction, some companies might reconsider their real estate investments, indicating a complex future landscape for single-family rentals in the U.S.

Here's how I know it's investors buying up homes: When I was thinking of selling my home last year, the realtor flat out told me that if I didn't want to go through the process of putting it on the market, they had investors who would buy it. So corporate investors can gobble up houses before they even hit the market! I've already decided if I do sell, it won't be to an investor, even if I have to sell at a discount. I want a young family have the American dream ❤

The practice should be illegal It happened to my neighbor who had just buried their grandmother got a phone call was told how how horrible the house was they agreed to a cash payout of $60,000. The next week it was on the market for $280,000 2 weeks from that it's still on the market for $388,000. So the buyers flipped it and sold it to a third buyer who is still holding the bag.

Also in the SF bay area during covid put a morritorium on evictions for up to 3 years causing many mom and pop landlords to lose their properties due to non payment of rents.
