This is completely misleading. What is not shown is the % of the homes that are owned by the big companies.
A good analogy would be if there were a handful of companies buying 60% -70% of the seats in Tiger Stadium but 90% of the buyers of seats were only purchasing 2-4 seats.
Then present the data as 90% of the buyers were only buying 2-4 seats.
This is part of the narrative to hide what is actually happening.

How many "small investors" are shell companies owned by Black Rock, Goldman, etc?

There is a question of what exactly constitutes what people want when they think of a “free” market in the general sense.
I’d say that it’s when basic supply and demand control prices. When an actor tries to control the market and inflate prices, that’s not “free”. Obvious examples like milk, water and ice price gauging after a hurricane are easy to see.

You have no idea what you're talking about.

Someone who owns 10 homes isn't a "small investor."
Also, are those broken up by subsidiary? It's really easy to make 15 different LLCs to hold 15 different homes. Would it show up as 15 people owning one home, or one conglomerate owning 15?
I'm a conservative, but I'm fricking grossed out by some of you simping for the megadonor class.

How would you define a "small business" you'd probably be surprised to see how "big" a business can be and still be categorized as a small business

I'm getting tired of the random text messages and phone calls asking me to sell my house.

The graph is share of single family homes purchased by investors grouped by # of homes owned. I think that’s exactly what you described wanting to see.

Who has the complimentary chart showing the total value and units of homes by each category?

Is a market free if an actor is trying to artificially deflate prices?

They really can't do that. The cost to setup "small" companies is too high to have less than thousands of assets under management.
Now, if we're talking them providing warehouses or buying securities from small guys, thats almost certainly happening but thats no different than any regular mortgage program.

This is not weighted for volume in each year.

But the fact that the small number of large companies ranks that high is alarming.
Why?
If the free market dictates that it is a good thing for these companies to buy single family homes, why is that alarming?
Why do so many people on this board freak out about free market capitalism?
Seriously, how many of you guys are losers making close to minimum wage? Rather than pushing a communist agenda, why not work harder & make more money?

Most people don't know or like to acknowledge that this big players are making investments on behalf of their 401k, pension etc.
