Eventually, a good percentage of American neighbourhoods are all going to look the same because of Private Equity companies like BlackStone. (And here I thought they make stoves maybe ovens or something).

They can buy and are buying up entire neighbourhoods, essentially communities, and building the same cookie cutter buildings and multi-family homes with cheap materials labeled as “luxury housing”. They obviously don’t want you to own them, so you just keep renting until you figure out their scheme.

Say no to corporate landlords.

You will own nothing and be happy…

Yikes

Those townhouses go up around here by the hundreds. And the single family (not attached to other houses) houses look the same as well, if you can imagine that. The yards are smaller than train cars.

Prices are nuts. Craziest thing is that they’re all are built by the same company.

to buy one of these cookie-cutter residences:

Townhouse: $450k

Single family house: $750k

This article I read mostly talked about this predominantly happening in the US “sunbelt” but I guess it’s also gradually happening in the northeast.

I wonder which of the big 4 owns that.

Well, Ryan Homes owns pretty much all the new developments in the Frederick MD area.

Oh shit DOXXED!!!!!

The Blackstone grill (separate co) is actually awesome!
