A Housing Rescue Mission: Taking on Institutional Investors in Ohio
Corporations have been buying real estate in record numbers in recent years. The surge in investor ownership has been keenly felt in Ohio, where one out of every six homes sold in 2022 was purchased by a corporation. The issue has inspired action in the state legislature, with two bills recently introduced to stem the wave of corporate purchases, and LISC’s Ohio offices are working together at the state level to address investor ownership concerns and advocate for tenants.
