About This Trend

The role of private equity in the housing market has been expanding swiftly, capitalizing on the current housing crisis and, in some instances, intensifying it. As these large corporate landlords gain more influence, tenants are uniting and adopting innovative strategies to challenge them financially.

These approaches include bringing their grievances to regulatory authorities and targeting public retirement funds, which are significant investors in private equity. By directing attention to these investment sources, tenants are aiming to influence the practices of private equity firms in the housing market. Planners should be aware of these organizations as possible partners in unraveling and solving the many complexities of rental properties and tenant rights.
