Jon Ossoff initiated an investigation into housing issues in Georgia. This coincided with Georgia State University studying the corporate housing market in Atlanta. A 2024 report cited in the investigation found that institutional investors owned approximately a quarter of all single-family rental homes in Atlanta.

Why it matters
The issue gained focus because housing is the largest expense for most Americans, averaging 33% of annual consumer spending. The findings suggest that the institutional investment in the housing market may be contributing to rising rents and home prices in the state.
