    Exactly, this guy makes the argument that people don’t want to own homes. No, we can’t afford to buy homes because of stagnating wages, unchecked crazy increases in rent prices, and companies like this buying up all the affordable housing to rent for a profit. This thievery should be illegal. People can’t afford to live anymore.

    What do you think the outcome of increasing thier taxes will be? They will pass the expense onto their consumers which in turn will perpetuate the "problem" It's a business. Don't hate the player, hate the game or learn to play. I'm not supporting this activity, just understand that there were once all these homes available for sale; ie, available inventory. Meaning, people couldn't afford to buy so it's inventory just sitting there. What happens when inventory just "sits on the shelf"? They saw an opportunity and took it. The banks don't want to own these homes, so they sold them off. Other than implementing a tax increase, what other solutions can you think of? They will eventually face serious revenue strategies if no one can afford to live in their homes.

    Nearly two thirds of Americans already own their own homes which already makes that number impossible. Secondly, if they buy up housing and rent it instead, that increases the supply in the rental market. The reason that housing is expensive has nothing to do with these corporations. It has to do with the fact that for the past 50 years state and local governments have basically made it illegal to build more housing. When housing supply goes down relative to demand than the price goes up.

Sure some landlords live close by and do care about the properties they buy. But many do not - both corporate and individual investors.

    @@CyFi6 That's called dollar cost averaging down. So if Apple or Google drop 40% during a market crash, you wouldn't sell (only if you're desperate to or panicking). But you're buying more of the stock on bargain prices as you would've if the stocks kept going up over time. You hold long, and you recoup your cost basis much sooner, and profit much faster. Many people think that even if housing crashes, these companies will treat it the same way. A few toxic firms may go belly up, but many others will still be cash flowing these rentals (which they bought at basement interest rates), and will easily still continue buying more RE during a crash. If prices go up, it's nice for them. If they go down? They'll just buy cheaper, adjust the rent, and continue collecting cash flow......other than staunch legislation, I don't see this being fixed now. It's become bigger than anyone thinks. Pensions are now tied to these companies, so even people that think they want to see them get hurt? May end up losing a ton of their retirement.

Money laundering the proceeds of crime, or from corrupt business entities, is channelled through property purchases in every single Western country. And, as many commenters note, a substantial percentage of those homes remain empty. Whether it's Russian owned mansions in London or Chinese owned penthouses in NYC - the same game plays out around the world. Realtors acquire great personal wealth by looking the other way, and not making robust inquiries or reporting their buyers. In many cases the realtors are found to be complicit - by helping foreign nationals to buy luxury properties through shelf companies. The government controls and investigations of suspicious property purchases are poorly funded - not enough feet on the ground to do their job effectively.

    This is nothing new. Back in the early 2000's, about 30% of the new homes built in our area were already designated to be sold off as rental properties to either local companies or groups of investors. Once the crash happened in 2008 - 2009, this actually continued as banks looked to somehow bring in income on homes they had foreclosed on. Now, in 2022, as many as 40% of the starter homes built in our city are earmarked to be sold to property companies that rent them out.

    This is just like how mom&pop shops went out. Owning homes will now go out. Good rent rates will go out.

    This is why rent is so damn high; home prices are far too expensive for the average person and people are struggling to survive because housing costs comes very close to or exceeds the average income. This needs to come to an end. DO NOT SELL TO INVESTORS

    I’m glad on a smaller level that our local HOA has banned rental properties for nonresident and corporate entities. You don’t have to be the federal government to make a small difference.

    Greed is ruining this country. Laws should prevent these schemes. First off, there needs to be more of a movement for tiny and shed houses. Cheap basic affordable housing for homeless and poor. Small single-family homes three bedroom two bath should have limits for rental. Large corporations and real estate investment firms are raising the prices of rents and driving up the values. Sick society

    This should not be permitted. Ban foreign acquisition of US real estate unless it is owner occupied. This is absolutely outrageous. There should also be significant restrictions on RE ownership by large leveraged companies.

    while we are at it make buying laws that eliminate these leeches for single family homes. there is a place for rental and it is in higher density apartments. breaking up any landlord corperation that have anything near 50% market share in a single city as well, there is a reason our grand parents broke up monopolies and we seem to have forgotten this lesson.

    property management companies are doing their part at driving up rents. one company can monopolize the rental market in entire locations. particularly small towns. they put insane demands on renters like demanding they make 3 times the rent in income. i'm being turned down for rentals all over the country, small and large towns, because of this ABSURD property-management requirement! i've rented for over 45 years and i've never made three times my rent in income! never evicted. never late for rent in 45 years and homelessness is MY REWARD! i'm not allowed govt subsidized housing because there's 5 to 10 year waiting lists. i'm not allowed normal, market housing because i'm considered too poor although i can pay rent! HOMELESSNESS is my only option thanks to the damned greedy profiteers who're turning the u. s. into a third world country and the govt does NOTHING to stop them! THAT'S THE REAL AMERICA PEOPLE!

    2% is a lot. They are right though that a lot of people have more than one home which is another huge issue. As long as housing is an investment we are going to have issues.

    This is why I want to live in a more rural area. Hopefully buy an empty lot (doesn't need to be huge) and build my own small house... At this rate it might end up being cheaper in the long run than being forced to outbid corporations or pay extreme rents.

    We moved from the city to a semi rural area about 4 years ago. There were some vacant lots around our house. Now all the lots had been sold, and new houses were built by investors. Looks like we are in a subdivision now, and the taxes just skyrocketed from last year. Our house is no match for the new surrounding houses but we are taxed the same.
