How Trump's billionaires are hijacking affordable housing

America’s morbidly rich billionaires are at it again, this time screwing the average family’s ability to have decent, affordable housing in their never-ending quest for more, more, more. Canada, New Zealand, Singapore, and Denmark have had enough and done something about it: we should, too.

There are a few things that are essential to “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” that should never be purely left to the marketplace; these are the most important sectors where government intervention, regulation, and even subsidy are not just appropriate but essential. Housing is at the top of that list.

A few days ago I noted how, since the Reagan Revolution, the cost of housing has exploded in America, relative to working class income.

When my dad bought his home in the 1950s, for example, the median price of a single-family house was around 2.2 times the median American family income. Today the St. Louis Fed says the median house sells for $417,700 while the median American income is $40,480—a ratio of more than 10 to 1 between housing costs and annual income.

In other words, housing is about five times more expensive (relative to income) than it was in the 1950s.

And now we’ve surged past a new tipping point, causing the homelessness that’s plagued America’s cities since George W. Bush’s deregulation-driven housing- and stock-market crash in 2008, exacerbated by Trump’s bungling America’s pandemic response.

And the principal cause of both that crash and today’s crisis of homelessness and housing affordability has one, single, primary cause: billionaires treating housing as an investment commodity.

A new report from Popular Democracy and the Institute for Policy Studies reveals how billionaire investors have become a major driver of the nationwide housing crisis. They summarize in their own words:

— Billionaire-backed private equity firms worm their way into different segments of the housing market to extract ever-increasing rents and value from multi-family rental, single-family homes, and mobile home park communities. — Global billionaires purchase billions in U.S. real estate to diversify their asset holdings, driving the creation of luxury housing that functions as “safety deposit boxes in the sky.” Estimates of hidden wealth are as high as $36 trillion globally, with billions parked in U.S. land and housing markets. — Wealthy investors are acquiring property and holding units vacant, so that in many communities the number of vacant units greatly exceeds the number of unhoused people. Nationwide there are 16 million vacant homes: that is, 28 vacant homes for every unhoused person. — Billionaire investors are buying up a large segment of the short-term rental market, preventing local residents from living in these homes, in order to cash in on tourism. These are not small owners with one unit, but corporate owners with multiple properties. — Billionaire investors and corporate landlords are targeting communities of color and low-income residents, in particular, with rent increases, high rates of eviction, and unhealthy living conditions. What’s more, billionaire-owned private equity firms are investing in subsidized housing, enjoying tax breaks and public benefits, while raising rents and evicting low-income tenants from housing they are only required to keep affordable, temporarily. (Emphasis theirs.)

It seems that everywhere you look in America you see the tragedy of the homelessness these billionaires are causing. Rarely, though, do you hear about the role of Wall Street and its billionaires in causing it.

The math, however, is irrefutable.

Thirty-two percent is the magic threshold, according to research funded by the real estate listing company Zillow. When neighborhoods hit rent rates in excess of 32 percent of neighborhood income, homelessness explodes. And we’re seeing it play out right in front of us in cities across America because a handful of Wall Street billionaires are making a killing.

As the Zillow study notes:

“Across the country, the rent burden already exceeds the 32 percent [of median income] threshold in 100 of the 386 markets included in this analysis….”

And wherever housing prices become more than three times annual income, homelessness stalks like the grim reaper. That Zillow-funded study laid it out:

“This research demonstrates that the homeless population climbs faster when rent affordability — the share of income people spend on rent — crosses certain thresholds. In many areas beyond those thresholds, even modest rent increases can push thousands more Americans into homelessness.”

This trend is massive.

As noted in a Wall Street Journal article titled “Meet Your New Landlord: Wall Street,” in just one suburb (Spring Hill) of Nashville:

“In all of Spring Hill, four firms … own nearly 700 houses … [which] amounts to about 5% of all the houses in town.”

This is the tiniest tip of the iceberg.

“On the first Tuesday of each month,” notes the Journal article about a similar phenomenon in Atlanta, investors “toted duffels stuffed with millions of dollars in cashier’s checks made out in various denominations so they wouldn’t have to interrupt their buying spree with trips to the bank…”

The same thing is happening in cities and suburbs all across America; agents for the billionaire investor goliaths use fine-tuned computer algorithms to sniff out houses they can turn into rental properties, making over-market and unbeatable cash bids often within minutes of a house hitting the market.

After stripping neighborhoods of homes young families can afford to buy, billionaires then begin raising rents to extract as much cash as they can from local working class communities.

In the Nashville suburb of Spring Hill, the vice-mayor, Bruce Hull, told the Journal you used to be able to rent “a three bedroom, two bath house for $1,000 a month.” Today, the Journal notes:

“The average rent for 148 single-family homes in Spring Hill owned by the big four [Wall Street billionaire investor] landlords was about $1,773 a month…”

As the Bank of International Settlements summarized in a 2014 retrospective study of the years since the Reagan/Gingrich changes in banking and finance:

“We describe a Pareto frontier along which different levels of risk-taking map into different levels of welfare for the two parties, pitting Main Street against Wall Street. … We also show that financial innovation, asymmetric compensation schemes, concentration in the banking system, and bailout expectations enable or encourage greater risk-taking and allocate greater surplus to Wall Street at the expense of Main Street.”

It’s a fancy way of saying that billionaire-owned big banks and hedge funds have made trillions on housing while you and your community are becoming destitute.

Ryan Dezember, in his book Underwater: How Our American Dream of Homeownership Became a Nightmare, describes the story of a family trying to buy a home in Phoenix. Every time they entered a bid, they were outbid instantly, the price rising over and over, until finally the family’s father threw in the towel.

“Jacobs was bewildered,” writes Dezember. “Who was this aggressive bidder?”

Turns out it was Blackstone Group, now the world’s largest real estate investor run by a major Trump supporter. At the time they were buying $150 million worth of American houses every week, trying to spend over $10 billion. And that’s just a drop in the overall bucket.

As that new study from Popular Democracy and the Institute for Policy Studies found:

“[Billionaire Stephen Schwarzman’s] Blackstone is the largest corporate landlord in the world, with a vast and diversified real estate portfolio. It owns more than 300,000 residential units across the U.S., has $1 trillion in global assets, and nearly doubled its profits in 2021. “Blackstone owns 149,000 multi-family apartment units; 63,000 single-family homes; 70 mobile home parks with 13,000 lots through their subsidiary Treehouse Communities; and student housing, through American Campus Communities (144,300 beds in 205 properties as of 2022). Blackstone recently acquired 95,000 units of subsidized housing.”

In 2018, corporations and the billionaires that own or run them bought 1 out of every 10 homes sold in America, according to Dezember, noting that:

“Between 2006 and 2016, when the homeownership rate fell to its lowest level in fifty years, the number of renters grew by about a quarter.”

And it’s gotten worse every year since then.

This all really took off around a decade ago following the Bush Crash, when Morgan Stanley published a 2011 report titled “The Rentership Society,” arguing that snapping up houses and renting them back to people who otherwise would have wanted to buy them could be the newest and hottest investment opportunity for Wall Street’s billionaires and their funds.

Turns out, Morgan Stanley was right. Warren Buffett, KKR, and The Carlyle Group have all jumped into residential real estate, along with hundreds of smaller investment groups, and the National Home Rental Council has emerged as the industry’s premiere lobbying group, working to block rent control legislation and other efforts to control the industry.

As John Husing, the owner of Economics and Politics Inc., told The Tennessean newspaper:

“What you have are neighborhoods that are essentially unregulated apartment houses. It could be disastrous for the city.”

As Zillow found:

“The areas that are most vulnerable to rising rents, unaffordability, and poverty hold 15 percent of the U.S. population — and 47 percent of people experiencing homelessness.”

The loss of affordable homes also locks otherwise middle class families out of the traditional way wealth is accumulated — through home ownership: over 61% of all American middle-income family wealth is their home’s equity.

And as families are priced out of ownership and forced to rent, they become more vulnerable to homelessness.

Housing is one of the primary essentials of life. Nobody in America should be without it, and for society to work, housing costs must track incomes in a way that makes housing both available and affordable.

Singapore, Denmark, New Zealand, and parts of Canada have all put limits on billionaire, corporate, and foreign investment in housing, recognizing families’ residences as essential to life rather than purely a commodity. Multiple other countries are having that debate or moving to take similar actions as you read these words.

America should, too.

Property Investment for Millennials: Key Considerations in 2025

The concept of property investment has evolved significantly in recent years, especially for millennials. With rising property prices, changing financial priorities, and the advent of digital tools, the real estate market in 2025 offers unique opportunities and challenges. For millennials looking to secure their financial future, Property Investment Singapore stands out as a strategic and potentially rewarding option. In this blog, we’ll explore key considerations for millennials diving into the property market this year.

Why Millennials Are Drawn to Property Investment in 2025

Millennials, born between 1981 and 1996, have matured in an era of technological advancement and economic shifts. Unlike previous generations, they tend to focus on investments that offer stability and long-term growth. Real estate, particularly in booming markets like Singapore, meets these criteria.

Key Drivers:

Financial Independence: Property is seen as a long-term investment to build wealth and hedge against inflation.

Rent vs. Buy Dilemma: Rising rental costs in urban areas make property ownership more appealing.

Passive Income Streams: Rental properties can provide millennials with an additional income source.

Why Choose Property Investment in Singapore?

Singapore’s real estate market is known for its resilience, strategic location, and government policies that foster growth. Here’s why Property Investment Singapore is a compelling option:

Stable Economy and Political Climate

Singapore’s strong economic fundamentals and transparent regulatory framework make it a safe haven for investors. Millennials are particularly drawn to this stability in an uncertain global economy.

Growing Demand for Housing

As the population grows and urbanization continues, the demand for quality housing remains high. This offers opportunities for capital appreciation and rental yields.

Government Schemes and Initiatives

Singapore’s government actively supports first-time buyers and young investors through initiatives like the CPF Housing Grant and Enhanced Proximity Housing Grant. These programs reduce the financial burden and make property ownership more accessible.

Key Considerations for Millennials in 2025

Understanding Your Financial Position

Before investing, it’s essential to evaluate your financial health. Key steps include:

Assessing Debt: Clear high-interest debts before committing to a mortgage.

Saving for a Down Payment: Aim to save at least 25% of the property value for a comfortable down payment.

Building a Safety Net: Keep an emergency fund for unforeseen expenses.

Location, Location, Location

In real estate, location is everything. When considering Property Investment Singapore, focus on:

Proximity to Public Transport: Properties near MRT stations or bus hubs tend to have higher demand.

Amenities and Facilities: Look for areas with good schools, shopping malls, and recreational spaces.

Upcoming Developments: Invest in regions with planned infrastructure projects to maximize appreciation potential.

Type of Property

Millennials should carefully consider the type of property to invest in:

HDB Flats: Affordable housing options with government subsidies.

Condominiums: Offer lifestyle amenities and higher potential for rental yields.

Landed Properties: Require higher capital but offer exclusivity and appreciation over time.

Leverage Technology

In 2025, digital tools play a pivotal role in property investment:

Property Portals: Websites like PropertyGuru and 99.co help you compare listings and market trends.

Virtual Tours: Save time with immersive virtual tours of potential properties.

Data Analytics: Leverage tools that analyze rental yields, market performance, and property values.

Potential Risks and How to Mitigate Them

While property investment is lucrative, it comes with its share of risks. Millennials must be aware of these risks and take proactive steps to mitigate them.

Market Volatility

Risk: Property prices can fluctuate based on market conditions.

Solution: Invest in areas with consistent demand and stable growth trends.

Overleveraging

Risk: Taking on too much debt can strain your finances.

Solution: Stick to properties within your budget and opt for sustainable financing options.

Hidden Costs

Risk: Additional costs like property taxes, maintenance fees, and insurance can add up.

Solution: Budget for all associated costs before committing to a purchase.

Tips for Millennials Considering Property Investment

Start Early: The earlier you invest, the more time your property has to appreciate.

Educate Yourself: Attend workshops, read market reports, and consult property experts.

Work with Professionals: Engage real estate agents, financial advisors, and legal consultants to ensure a smooth investment process.

Think Long-Term: Property investment is not a get-rich-quick scheme. Be prepared to hold your property for several years to reap maximum benefits.

Conclusion

For millennials, property investment is more than just owning a home—it’s about securing financial stability and creating wealth for the future. With strategic planning, informed decision-making, and a focus on growth markets like Property Investment Singapore, millennials in 2025 can confidently step into the real estate world and reap the rewards.

5 Expert Tips for Renting Your Dream Home in Southeast Asia

Renting a property in Southeast Asia, whether in Johor Bahru or Brunei, offers an exciting opportunity to embrace new cultures and lifestyles. However, navigating the rental market in these regions can be daunting, especially if you're unfamiliar with local practices.

If you're looking for a property for rent in Johor Bahru or a Brunei property for rent, these actionable tips will ensure a seamless experience.

Rental Costs: Apartments in the city center range from RM 1,500 to RM 2,500 per month, while suburban homes are more budget-friendly.

Brunei offers a quieter, more serene lifestyle. Its rental market is smaller but emphasizes high-quality housing.

A reputable real estate agent can save you time and help you find the best deals.

Why Use an Agent?

Agents are familiar with the local market and can recommend properties that meet your needs.

They help negotiate rental agreements and ensure compliance with local laws.

Finding the Right Agent

In Johor Bahru, look for agencies specializing in cross-border rentals for those working in Singapore.

Consult a legal advisor to review the agreement if you’re renting a high-value property.

4. Online Platforms: The Best Places to List Property for Rent

Whether you’re searching for a home or looking to list property for rent, online platforms are invaluable.

Popular Platforms

Johor Bahru: Use websites like iProperty, PropertyGuru, or Mudah.my to find the latest listings.

How to List Property for Rent

High-Quality Photos: Highlight the property’s key features, such as modern interiors or scenic views.

Engaging Descriptions: Use SEO-friendly phrases like “affordable property for rent in Johor Bahru” or “spacious Brunei property for rent.”

Competitive Pricing: Research similar properties to set a fair rental price.

Pro Tip:

Respond promptly to inquiries to improve your chances of securing a tenant.

5. Explore Amenities and Surroundings

The right property is about more than just the home—it’s also about the neighborhood.

Johor Bahru

Transport Links: Check for proximity to bus stations or the Causeway if you commute to Singapore.

Brunei

Community Life: Brunei’s neighborhoods are quiet and family-friendly, often close to mosques, parks, and markets.

Common Challenges During Commercial Relocation in Singapore and How to Overcome Them

Relocating a business can be an exciting step toward growth and new opportunities. However, commercial relocation in Singapore presents its own set of challenges. From logistical hurdles to budget constraints, many factors can disrupt the process if not handled carefully. This guide will explore common challenges businesses face during relocation and provide actionable solutions to overcome them.

1. Planning and Coordination Issues

One of the most significant challenges during office relocation is poor planning and coordination. Without a clear timeline and structured approach, tasks can overlap or be delayed, leading to unnecessary stress and downtime.

Solution:

Start planning at least three to six months before the move.

Create a detailed relocation timeline with specific milestones.

Assign a relocation team to oversee the process and ensure accountability.

2. Minimal Downtime Expectations

In a bustling business environment like Singapore, minimizing downtime is crucial to maintaining productivity and avoiding financial losses. Relocation often leads to interruptions, which can affect daily operations.

Solution:

Schedule the move during weekends or after working hours.

Work with professional office movers who specialize in quick and efficient relocations.

Notify clients, suppliers, and employees well in advance to manage expectations.

3. Managing Costs and Budgeting
