Housing prices have in recent history skyrocketed to an outer-atmosphere level of insanity. Why? Was it Covid? Was it inflation? Was it just time? 
 
Or maybe, it’s time to look closely at the mega-corporations using their bottomless wealth to buy up single family homes en-masse, rental properties in bulk, and enrich themselves--at the total devastation of the middle class. 
 
Everyday families can't compete against money managers with billions in assets. Some of these companies are financed by private equity firms and investment managers, and it’s now predicted that corporate investors will control 40% of single-family homes in the USA by 2030. The lower you can buy as an investor, the higher the chance of selling high. These companies are well capitalized, very smart, and they have the means to devastate marketplace. Housing-affordibility napalm for the next generation.
Meanwhile, the Canadian government doesn’t even have data on the footprint of large investors in the Canadian domestic housing market, a fact that should terrify its citizens to their core-and propel them to demand answers. 
 
North American people in the USA and Canada are being boiled alive, and we do not even scream out.
