Institutional Investors Make Up a Small Share of Today’s Market

Scroll through your social feed, and you may come across something that says investors are buying all the homes right now. But housing market data tells a different story.
Only 0.4% of the 86 million single-family homes in the U.S. are owned by large investors (those with over 1,000 properties) today. That’s a lot less than headlines would have you think.
So, if that’s been shaping how you see your chances of buying, it might be worth looking at things a little differently.
