Real estate investors, both individual and institutional, bought one-third of all single-family residential properties sold in the second quarter of 2025.
Investors should NOT be allowed to own houses, period. People should own houses. I don’t care if a few people have more than one house and rent that out, small time land lords are fine.
These investment companies are the worst and they destroy everything they touch, everything is immediately scorched earth. Meanwhile we’re in a very preventable global housing crisis, but hey, let’s sell homes to investment companies, because what could possibly go wrong?
So can we stop this? Please?

Nah, all landlords are leeches. Rent-seeking is literally parasitic by nature.
