INSTITUTIONAL INVESTOR BAN
Trump proposed banning large institutional investors from buying single-family homes to lower prices, arguing that homes are meant for people, not corporations.
PAST ATTEMPTS HAVE FAILED
Nearly identical bills have been introduced before, including efforts in 2022 and 2023 to force hedge funds to divest homes or lose tax benefits. None passed. Reasons include constitutional concerns, heavy lobbying, legal complexity, and the reality that enforcement would be costly and easy to circumvent through shell companies.
REAL-WORLD RESULTS
Places that tried similar restrictions saw poor outcomes. Atlanta limited build-to-rent developments and prices still rose while rents stayed flat. Canada banned foreign buyers with almost no effect on affordability and stalled development. The Netherlands, Denmark, and New Zealand restricted investor ownership and ended up reducing rental supply, increasing prices, and pushing out lower-income renters. Several later reversed course.
THE “WALL STREET IS BUYING” MYTH
Viral claims that massive firms are outbidding families for homes are largely misleading. Many high-profile examples involved purpose-built rental communities that were never available to individual buyers.
WHO ACTUALLY BUYS HOMES
Roughly 75% of buyers are owner-occupants. Of the ~26% labeled “investors,” about half are mom-and-pop landlords owning fewer than nine properties. Only about 2–3% of total buyers are large institutional owners. Large firms own roughly 1–2% of single-family rentals overall, making their impact on prices statistically minimal.
WHY HOME PRICES ARE HIGH
High prices stem from years of ultra-low interest rates locking sellers in place, restrictive zoning that limits new supply, excessive regulation and fees that discourage building, high consumer debt, government-backed mortgage incentives, and sustained demand driven by cultural pressure to buy homes.
WHY THE BAN COULD BACKFIRE
If institutional buyers are blocked, developers may stop building rental communities, reducing supply. Less inventory would likely push rents higher and discourage large-scale construction, potentially increasing home prices rather than lowering them.
WHAT WOULD ACTUALLY HELP AFFORDABILITY
Effective solutions include streamlining permits and zoning, reducing excessive fees, increasing the capital-gains exclusion to encourage selling, allowing mortgage portability to unlock inventory, expanding mortgage-interest deductions for new buyers, embracing modular and denser housing, and offering tax incentives to builders.
