    Most conservative I know and many are extreme far right don’t support PE buying sfh homes. This seems to be a topic that most people agree on. The American dream is owning a home, among other things but a core concept is home ownership. PE steals that dream from many Americans.

      Yep. In the name of profit.

      This is why qualitative things (housing, food, education, healthcare, etc.) have no place in a free market. It becomes about the money more than the thing itself which benefits society. Therefore with the expectation of unlimited short term growth the benefit to society is minimized to maximize growth.

      This housing situation you’ve caught on to is just one aspect of this out of many.
