I don't even have a problem with these companies buying houses. What I have a huge problem with is they are allowed to do it with zero risks. If the bottom falls out of the market, you know who the politicians are going to rush to save from default? The corporations. They won't have to let go of inventory at a 30% discount to relieve their obligations. Joe American on the other hand...

Some of these firms are technically buying these houses with your retirement money. I bet your 401K has money tied up in a few REITs
