How Wall Street Rigged the Housing Market

Описание: For 75 years, Americans were told the same story: work hard, save, buy a home, and you’ll own a piece of the country. In 2025, that promise is quietly being replaced with something else: a permanent “rentership” society.

In this video, we break down how Wall Street, private equity, and giant REITs turned the American dream of homeownership into a financial product. From the 2008 foreclosure wave to today’s “build-to-rent” suburbs, you’ll see how single-family homes were transformed into rental factories owned by a tiny elite — while regular families get priced out of their own neighborhoods.

We’ll look at:

How institutional investors like private equity funds started buying entire neighborhoods

Why high interest rates crush buyers but actually help corporate landlords

The rise of rental-backed securities and algorithmic rent setting

“Build-to-rent” communities where nothing is for sale — ever

How pension funds may be using your retirement savings to outbid you on a house

Why this all adds up to a modern form of neo-feudalism in the U.S. housing market

If you’ve ever wondered why home prices keep exploding while wages stay flat, why rents jump 20% overnight, or why every “starter home” you like disappears to an all-cash buyer, this video will connect the dots. This isn’t just a housing story — it’s about power, control, and who will actually own America in the next decade.
