Big investment firms like #BlackRock are buying up single-family homes in bulk, often paying 20 to 30 percent over asking price in cash. Regular families can’t compete. Once these firms control enough homes in a neighborhood, they can artificially raise local market values by selling a few properties between entities they own—causing tax assessments to jump and pushing longtime residents out. A former 1,800 mortgage becomes a 2,500 rental controlled by a corporate landlord. That’s not a market; that’s a shift in power.Instead of building generational wealth through owning a home, younger Americans are being turned into permanent renters—and older homeowners are being squeezed by tax inflation until they’re forced to sell. Housing should function as shelter and family stability, not just as a revenue stream for large investment funds. If homeownership is to remain possible for ordinary Americans, policies must confront bulk corporate buying and strengthen protections for individual buyers.#housingmarket #rentals #corporateownership #BlackRock #homeownership #economy #middleclass #wealthtransfer #housingcrisis #WallStreet #realestate #supply #affordability—Repost from @calvincannonjr:(BlackRock didn’t react to the market — they controlled it.They bought single-family homes, shifted them through internal LLs to raise ARVs, and built rental empires - all by design, not luck.This is the business of real estate.If you don’t understand these strategies, you’re not behind - you’re exposed.Learn how to think like the real players.Learn real estate like a business.Powered by Calvin Cannon Jr. | The Business of Real Estate Coach™Comment “Mentorship” to learn how to move like this.) repost @attorneycrumpHelp this information get to more voters. 🇺🇸 A well-informed electorate is a prerequisite to Democracy.—Thomas Jefferson https://www.instagram.com/p/DRhsuH5ka27/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==
