The single-family rental and build-for-rent market has heat up in the past year, attracting the attention and capital of a growing number of well-known institutional investors. But a panel comprised of a leading SFR owner/developer, industry consultant and capital and investment intermediaries say it’s not just a pandemic-driven phenomenon. “The trend was there before COVID and the trend is going to continue long after COVID,” said Jon Ellenzweig, chief investment officer at Tricon Residential, and one of the panelists on a webinar Wednesday entitled “Everything You Need to Know about the Single-Family Rental & Build-for-Rent Market,” hosted by France Media and sponsored by Walker & Dunlop.
