Is This The Death of Build to Rent?

Is Build-to-Rent still hot… or cooling off?
In this episode of Today in Mortgages, Michael and Rich break down the future of build-to-rent communities — who they serve, why they surged, and whether new political pressure could slow them down. From affordability challenges to institutional investor debates, we’re unpacking what this trend means for homebuyers, renters, and mortgage pros.

🔍 What we cover:

• What “build-to-rent” really means
• Why these communities exploded in places like Houston, Phoenix, Dallas & the Sunbelt
• How affordability gaps are shaping demand
• The political fight over institutional homeownership
• Whether forcing sell-offs could hurt housing supply
• What this all means for buyers, renters & the mortgage market
• Network Funding’s take on putting more people in homes
