Nije sve do imigranata, nesto je i do organizovanog kriminala. Ne mafijaskog, korporativnog. Trenutno se sudi kartelu firmi za izdavanje stanova zbog nelegalnog dogovora da svi odrzavaju visoke cijene preko softverskog algoritma:

In September 2023, Washington state resident Mckenna Duffy filed the antitrust class-action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington against property management software company Yardi Systems and 18 apartment managers.
Duffy accused Yardi and the management companies of orchestrating a nationwide scheme to fix the cost of multifamily apartment rent. The suit contended that Yardi exchanged competitively sensitive and non-public information with clients through its automated pricing software, Revenue IQ (formerly RENTmaximizer) and that defendants engaged in direct conversations with their competitors about pricing through market surveys.
Tenants have also sued software and data provider RealPage and several apartment landlords, bringing roughly 30 cases alleging antitrust violations by RealPage and several owners and operators of multifamily housing utilizing the Richardson, Texas-based company’s revenue management systems. While those cases were combined and advanced in a Nashville, Tennessee, federal court last year, Denver-based Apartment Income REIT and Dallas-based Pinnacle Property Management Services, owned by real estate services firm Cushman & Wakefield, have decided to settle.
In November, the DOJ filed a brief arguing that the antitrust case against RealPage and a number of apartment operators should move forward and that apartment operators’ use of a shared algorithm is illegal under the per se rule of antitrust law, assuming the allegations against the company are true.
“The alleged scheme constitutes price fixing regardless of whether the competing landlords ever communicated with one another about prices,” DOJ lawyers wrote in a court filing.

According to data reported by the PEW Trust and originally gathered by CoreLogic, as of 2022, investment companies take up about a quarter of the single-family home market. Specifically, investor purchases accounted for 22% of all American homes in 2022. This number slightly decreased from last year (2021), which sat at 24%, with 90,215 homes in the third quarter alone. Over the last decade, the number of investors purchasing homes has increased from 10% to 15% each year, except for 2020 to 2021, which, according to a study by Redfin, saw an increase of over 80%. So, yes, investment and residential real estate companies are purchasing more and more American homes each year.
When looking at the Wall Street companies buying up homes, you have a small list of corporations that have shaped this growing trend. One of the first companies to make waves in this market is Blackstone. Founded in 1985, Blackstone, or Blackstone Group, is an alternative investment firm based out of New York. Blackstone’s total capital of 2021 sat at $880 billion, over a third of which came from its real estate department. In 2012, Blackstone purchased Invitation Homes, a rental company owning around 80,000 homes. In 2019, Blackstone sold Invitation Homes, only to purchase Home Partners of America in 2021. Since then, Blackstone has been an active powerhouse in the American home market.
Other large companies in the American home market are J.P. Morgan Asset Management, Goldman Sachs, Mynd Management, Pretium, and American Homes 4 Rent. These companies have bought and rented out tens of thousands of single-family homes for the past three years. American Homes 4 Rent, for example, owned over 52,000 homes in 2019, operating in over 22 states, with the largest concentration in Atlanta, Georgia.
Niko o ovome ne smije da prica od americkih politicara osim mozda Bernija i AOC, odmah krene histericno vristanje o komunizmu.
Druga stvar o kojoj niko ne zeli da prica je da dvije trecine Amerikanaca
zeli visoke cijene nekretnina jer imaju svoju kucu i zele da joj poraste vrijednost. Za preostalu trecinu ih zaboli neka stvar.
