New homes being built as rentals?

That has been going on in my area for a while now.

Why should homes be any different than everything else in today’s society?
Besides, why do you think these huge corporations are buying up the housing stock?
Two words… “Subscription Services”!!
The Renter pays for everything over time, and the Owner retains the Equity!!

This is exactly why our children can’t buy a home. All these properties owned by huge financial hedge funds and banks. This has to stop!

i agree, it has to stop. but that would involve regulation of some sort. oh well.

It doesn’t surprise me… here in Maui there really is no such thing as a first-time buyer unless mom and dad and ponying up some serious down payment cash. Rates being so low for so long allowed prices to skyrocket and sellers don’t seem anxious to budge so they are just staying put. People have to live somewhere so smart money is in increasing the # of rentals.
