“Federal Reserve microphone” Nick Timiraos retweeted data on social media saying that most single-family rental properties are owned by small landlords. Over the past few years, institutional investors have purchased about one percent of the total market turnover. Earlier, US President Trump said that his administration is beginning to ban Wall Street companies from buying single-family homes in order to lower housing prices. This is a potential blow to private equity landlords, and it is also putting pressure on homebuilders' stocks. Trump wrote in Truth Social that he is taking immediate steps to implement the ban, and he will also call on Congress to enact this ban into law. It's unclear what steps he will take.
