The burden of the proof is on Zillow, they are the multibillion behemoth
- sokoloff 5y agoThe burden of proof for what? That they’re the highest/best bidder for a house (or are the bidder that gives the most certainty or otherwise most appealing to the seller)? I trust the seller to make that determination.
- GDC7 5y agoHighest bid means nothing, moratoriums on institutional ownership of housing units are not a new concept. If enough angry people are energized then the highest bid from Zillow or BlackRock or BlackStone...won't mean anything. Matter of fact it can be reversed. Public opinion is the ultimate free market and it works via the allocation of love and hatred by the populace. Landlords gets a lot of hate as it is, think when the landlord is a multi-billion dollar company.
