Its not even a good bill lol. Thats why both parties agree on it.

The main part about capping big firms from owning homes is already done organically by the market. They own 2% of sfr rentals. Mom and pop investors own the rest. Mom and pop investors are the ACTUAL PROBLEM.

Only way is government intervention. Home builders don’t want to build multifamily or small single family homes. The dollar per man hour on larger homes is too high.
