EP#24 Matthew Putterman | Single-Family Rental REITs Earnings Recaps

Rental housing economist Jay Parsons breaks down the five key takeaways from the single-family rental housing REITs' recent earnings calls. The big one: Why did SFR revenue growth slow down given few home sales plus a large discount to rent versus buy? Punchline: The mainstream narrative has been wrong — and always was wrong. Jay breaks down why that's happening. Jay also shares the latest on how and why the SFR REITs continue to recycle capital — selling older, scattered-site homes and investing in new home construction. Jay also brings back recurring segments like "In the News" and "Rental Housing Trivia." Later in the program, Jay talks shop with one of the nation's top SFR brokers, JLL's Matthew Putterman. Jay and Matthew talk about the current SFR buy box, why institutions aren't buying houses off the MLS anymore, and how regulatory risk is impacting investment strategies.
