Summary: Invitation Homes, the largest single-family home landlord in the U.S., reported over $200 million in investment activity in the third quarter of 2024. The company entered agreements to acquire 580 homes in Tampa, Denver, and the Carolinas, most of which were already completed. The acquisitions underscore the company’s strong relationships with homebuilders, as it continues to grow its build-to-rent portfolio, with plans to invest $1 billion in home purchases in 2024. Additionally, Invitation Homes secured a new $3.5 billion credit facility to refinance previous debt at a lower interest rate. Despite potential slowdowns in build-to-rent construction, Invitation Homes sees ongoing demand in its markets, driven by a lack of housing supply.
