>Last year, investors bought nearly one in seven homes sold in America’s top metropolitan areas, the most in at least two decades, according to the realty company Redfin.
>Those purchases come at a time when would-be buyers across the country are seeing wildly escalating prices, raising the question of what impact investors are having on prices for everyone else. Investors were even more aggressive in the final three months of the year, buying 15 percent of all homes that sold in the 40 markets.

>They may have to offer tens of thousands of dollars over the asking price only to have those offers rejected anyway, Ms. Hilton, a real estate agent, tells them. They might have to put up thousands of dollars in nonrefundable fees to get a seller to consider their offer. And if they’re looking for a home for less than $300,000, they might be out of luck.
>About 2.5 million households shopping for a first home will be shut out of the market this year, estimates Nadia Evangelou, senior economist with the National Association of Realtors. That amounts to 15 percent of all first-time home buyers. In an already daunting market, investor purchasing is adding to the obstacles.
>Real estate investors bought a record 18.4 percent of the homes that were sold in the United States in the fourth quarter of 2021, up from 12.6 percent a year earlier, according to the realty company Redfin.
>And in some markets, especially in the relatively affordable Sun Belt metro areas, their share is far higher.
>In Charlotte and Atlanta, investors purchased more than 30 percent of the homes sold in the fourth quarter of 2021, according to Redfin. In Jacksonville, Fla., Las Vegas, and Phoenix, they bought just under 30 percent.
>“If there’s a house that’s affordable, it’s already gone within 24 hours,” Ms. Wilkes said. “Most times I don’t even get to make it to the open house before there’s already an offer in.”
that's ONE of the issues i've addressed that no one has even entertained. i've been met with "well i bought muh house 20+ years ago, geez louis why are you complaining?"
even the people bragging about owning a gorillion houses (aka slumlords) are admitting you are predatory and you purchased your *first* home many years ago. not one person has addressed any of my real complaints, you keep putting up weird ass strawmen like "lol you r poor n dumb".
you know what happens in a nation when people smarter than you decide to F off in society instead of solving the problems? instead of working? i don't think you realize how much this is going to backfire on everyone, not just "poor dumb" people.
