A new housing bill is changing how large institutional investors can purchase single-family homes - but will it actually make housing more affordable for first-time buyers? In this episode of the Relentless Growth Podcast , Chase Calhoun and Jack Maher break down the potential impact of the new legislation on institutional buyers, local real estate investors, build-to-rent developers, renters, and homebuyers. They discuss why institutional investors have already slowed their acquisition of scattered-site rental homes, where billions of dollars in capital could move next, and why build-to-rent communities and development opportunities may become even more competitive. Chase and Jack also explore a larger issue facing the housing market: many younger Americans may be financially capable of purchasing a home but are actively choosing to rent instead. That raises an important question - can government policy increase homeownership if consumer preferences are changing?
