They can't get liability insurance. No one wants to buy them. It's turned into a giant problem for smaller real estate investors.

We all probably have at least some equity in the holding companies that are taking a bath through our 401ks.

The people losing money don't bet their own money.

So be it. I'm close to retirement and realize it has to happen.

The only alternative is to keep kicking that can down the road, creating bigger bubbles.

That's not going to happen. They have the size and money to mitigate liability claims or even afford outrageous liability insurance premiums. Smaller investors don't. This drives down the prices and Blackstone buys the properties at a tremendous discount.

And after Corporates buy these discounted properties, the laws will be enforced. The Corporates just need to give the politicians a piece of the pie.

They smell what’s coming next year if Trump wins. Same as last time only this time it can NOT be tolerated. If Civil LE lays down again then the people will stand up. The Feds could only get in between and that would be like trying to break up a fight between a hundred Pit Bulls. Those buildings are worthless minus respect for Law.

If only residential real estate was plummeting. I watched a news report last week that reported upwards of 40% of all residential real estate will be owned by real estate investment companies by 2030.

Most of the damage was done right after the financial meltdown of 2008/2009. All these real estate investment companies were buying distressed residential properties at 50-60% discounts with ZIRP money and they have continued to do so because they built great real estate portfolios with cheap ZIRP money......next to the Covid-19 stimulus wealth transfer to the elites the financial meltdown of 2008/2009 is a close 2nd.
