https://x.com/KobeissiLetter/status/2008958750338531461 BREAKING: President Trump says he is immediately taking steps to ban large institutional investors from buying single-family homes.
"People live in homes, not corporations," Trump says.I'm sure Congress will find a way to screw up the idea.

Blackstone stock (not Blackrock) just tanked on Trump's announcement. Buying up single family homes is the anchor of their business. https://x.com/KobeissiLetter/status/2008963052222468541

Exactly. I hope he sinks them. Several big hedge funds are in it.

In my adult years I've learned to hate large corporate America in many ways. They are so intertwined with the evil and corruption of DC. Hopefully Trump will sink their sorry butts on this issue. Corporate home buying is so counter to the American dream.

Well that impacts my moving to GA/AL or SC plans. House prices may drop 30% over the next 3 months.

That would be great but I am sure that Congress will be lobbied hard by the likes of BlackRock to pass something to legalize it.

Not sure he has the power to be unilaterally making those calls. I don't think it would be a bad thing at all. But he's likely not got that power. I'm not a fan of the power of executive orders on businesses or everyday life in America.
Against foreign powers, sure. Pardons, sure. But I've never been a fan of that power regardless of what the sitting presidents choose to do with it. It should go through congress, where I prefer gridlock if possible.
But I can't argue it's a problem. I'm neck deep in that industry and see the damage it causes.
I'd much rather put a squash on foreign countries owning American property of any sort. Most countries don't allow non-citizens to own land and many don't even allow non-citizens to have jobs if their citizens can fill those jobs.
We need to be doing the same.

Character is not developed in moments of temptation and trial. That is when it is intended to be used.

Corporate home buying is so counter to the American dream. Most of it isn’t your America corporate at all… it is Foreign Corporate
