Blackstone Funding Largest U.S. Single-Family Rentals

“The private-equity firm is now planning to sell bonds backed by lease payments, the latest step in turning a small business into a mature industry. Blackstone has led hedge funds, private-equity firms and real estate investment trusts raising about $20 billion to purchase as many as 200,000 homes to rent after prices plunged 35 percent from the 2006 peak. The largest investors, seeking to profit from rebounding prices and rising demand for rentals among millions of Americans who went through foreclosure or can’t qualify for a mortgage, are looking to the bond market for capital to buy more properties and increase returns with borrowed money.”
