End Hedge Fund Control of American Homes Act is a House bill in Congress.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects hedge funds and other large investment groups that own many single-family homes. They would face new taxes, new ownership limits, and new reporting rules. Homebuyers could get more chances to buy homes from these investors, and some could receive down payment help through state programs. State housing agencies, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, and the Internal Revenue Service would have to run parts of the program.

Why this matters: This bill matters because large investors can compete with families for the same single-family homes. The bill tries to push covered investors to stop buying more homes and sell down large portfolios over time. It could also help some buyers with down payments. The real effect on home prices, rents, and housing supply is uncertain and would likely differ by local market.

Key provisions in H.R. 6608

Covered investors would pay a 50% tax when they buy a new single-family home. The tax is based on the home’s fair market value after the bill becomes law.
Covered investors would pay $50,000 each year for each home above their allowed limit. That limit is called the “maximum permissible units” in the bill.
The bill sets each investor’s home limit by looking at how many homes it owned on a set date. That limit then drops each year for nine years.
After nine years, covered hedge funds could own no covered single-family homes. Other covered investors could own up to 50.
A hedge fund taxpayer means an applicable taxpayer with at least $50 million in net value or assets under management during the year. Assets under management means money or property the taxpayer manages for investors.
