New @reinvestfund.bsky.social research - with #RutgersLaw CLiME - found corporate investors are most active as landlords in predominantly Black and Hispanic neighborhoods. This is leading to decreased affordability and “crowding out” first-time and lower-income homebuyers:

A new study finds investors are snapping up properties in neighborhoods like Germantown and Cobbs Creek — and it could change who can afford to live there.
