Institutional Landlords and the New Housing Crisis

The effects of COVID-19 on the economy will be deep and long lasting. One of the more important impacts may be on housing markets.  In this episode of EJBTalks, Stuart Shapiro has a revealing conversation with Assistant Professor Eric Seymour about the rental housing market and the looming eviction crisis. Professor Seymour talks about his research on predatory institutional landlords, including large motel conglomerates, and how these entities may exacerbate a potential housing crisis across the country.
