Let's go. These guys are quietly planning to buy the rest of the homes in 2025. They already bought the neighborhoods. Now they're coming for the rest. BlackRock, the most powerful asset manager on Earth, has its site set on what's left of the housing market in 2025. And the way they're doing it, you won't see it coming. They don't advertise it.

But they're everywhere. Behind the scenes, pulling strings, jacking up rents, shaping markets. And maybe setting us up for another crash. This isn't a conspiracy. It's Black Rock. They don't just invest in companies. They shape entire economies. They influence the Fed.

They helped design the government's COVID economic response. They don't follow the money. They move it. And their latest move? Buying houses. Lots of them. Not one here or there. Whole neighborhoods, all cash, no inspections,

often over-asking. Regular people don't stand a chance. In Atlanta and Phoenix, institutional buyers are scooping up one in every five homes. In Dallas, investors bought 43% of all homes under $300,000. Families can't compete. First-time buyers get crushed. And these companies, they don't plan to sell.

They want to own and rent everything. In one Phoenix neighborhood, rents shot up 19% after a single company entered the market. In Charlotte, prices surged 28% in a year after BlackRock picked up 1,200 homes. In some places, appraisers say institutional buyers have jacked up comps by 8 to 12%. That's not normal. That's not fair. That's rigged. But it gets worse.

See, BlackRock doesn't just buy the homes. They own part of the bank that gives the mortgage. They own part of the platform where the home is listed. They own shares in the media outlet reporting the market news. Wells Fargo, Zillow, Bloomberg. BlackRock owns stakes in all of them. They're not just buying the board. They built the game.

Their risk system? It's called Aladdin. It manages over $21 trillion. in assets used by 85% of Fortune 100 companies. It runs 250,000 market simulations a day. And during the 2023 banking panic, it triggered selloffs that worsened the crisis. This system isn't just powerful. It's untouchable.

BlackRock is not too big to fail. They're too big to question. And when things go south, they don't get punished. They get paid. In 2008, they got $120 million in fees to manage toxic assets. During COVID, they got $7.75 million. million dollars a year to help the Fed buy bonds, including their own ETFs. Meanwhile, Vanguard got 33 million, State Street got 15 million. BlackRock, they got the whole deal and the profits. And now

they're betting big on single-family rentals. Rents and their markets are rising faster than wages. Home ownership is shrinking, and every cash purchase from a company like BlackRock pushes one more family out of the game. I've got a client, Jesse, first-time buyer, offered full asking on a starter home. Clean financing, strong credit, still got outbid by an all-cash offer. No contingencies, no inspection. Offer came from an LLC. That house is now a rental. The new tenant pays $600 more per month than the mortgage would have cost. This is how it works now. They buy, you rent. They overpay, you get priced out. They own more, you own nothing. And maybe you've heard something like that before. You'll own nothing and be happy. Came from the World Economic Forum. But BlackRock,

making it feel real. And here's the craziest part. Black Rock doesn't even need to buy homes to control the housing market. They own pieces of the companies that do. They hold nearly 7% of American homes for rent, one of the biggest single-family landlords in the country. That company alone controls nearly 60,000 homes.

They own pieces of core logic, home loan servicing solutions, even Zillow. Their Aladdin system, it runs risk for the very funds buying up the neighborhoods. They finance the builders. They influence the media. They push capital into rentals,

so fewer starter homes get built for people like you. They don't even need to touch your street. The system moves for them. And the deeper you go, the harder it is to find where Black Rock ends and the housing market begins. I could go so deep into this, you might not sleep tonight. Let me know in the comments if I should make a part two. There's way more under the surface than I've shown you.

And 2025 is where it all ramps up. With rates holding high and inventory shift, This is the year companies like Black Rock make their biggest move yet. And here's the scary part. If interest rates rise or new laws kick in or returns dip, Black Rock might need to dump properties fast. A 2% rate height could force them to sell nearly 9,000 homes a month just to stay afloat. In a fire sale, that could mean an 18% price drop and investor heavy markets.

That hits everyone. Renters get evicted. Counties lose property tax revenue. Homeowners get trapped underwater. In places like Maricopa County, Arizona, where investors hold huge portfolios, a drop in values could crush the local economy. Property tax projections there are already down 23%. And if that sounds like 2008, it should. That crash started the same way.

Companies chasing yield, over-leveraged bets, bad comps, fast money. Back then, they called it subprime. Now, it's institutional strategy. But here's the truth they don't want you to hear. This isn't just a housing problem. This is a wealth problem, a control problem. The top 10% of Americans now own 89% of all stocks and corporate equity. The bottom 50%, just 1%.

And every time a hedge fund buys a starter home, that gap, it gets wider. So what's the plan? Well, Maryland just passed a bill to cap institutional ownership at 25 homes. Fines hit $10,000 per property over the limit. The FTC is probing anti-competitive buying in 12 states. California is pushing a $15 billion fund for affordable housing. But don't get too excited. Reets like BlackRock still get 20% tax deductions most people don't.

They don't have to disclose the same info under loopholes from the 2012 Jobs Act. The SEC even censored them in 2015 for conflicts of interest. It didn't stop anything. This isn't going away, and globally, it's spreading. Toronto's housing crisis has roots in Black Rock's 35,000 home portfolio. In Germany, rent caps came only after one company owned 330,000 units. In China, Evergrand collapsed with one and a half million unfinished homes. Proof this isn't just an American issue.

So what can you do? You find the cracks. Black Rock isn't everywhere. Not yet. Secondary markets like Toledo or Rochester still offer 7 to 9% cap rates. seller financing and FISBO deals, cut them out completely. Tax lien investing in places like Florida or New Jersey still bring 8 to 12% returns with zero corporate competition.

And part of that strategy? Getting access to money the way the big players do. There's a little known way to fund your next deal using zero percent interest for up to 18 months. It's not bank financing. It's not private lending. It's something I call loophole lending. I'll drop a link below so you can check it out.

Real estate is still the final frontier where the average person has a legitimate shot at creating real wealth while you're still young enough to enjoy it. So, to get your piece, you use tools like Epic Privy's heat maps to track investor activity. You go direct to seller. You move before they do. But here's the hard truth. Black Rock will keep buying. If they screw it up, they'll get bailed out. But you, you've got to be smart.

You don't need billions. You need a strategy. Get off the mainstream path. Look where the giants aren't. I put together some free information for you to help you do just that. No pitch, no opt-in, just clarity and direction. The link is down below in the description. It'll help you find the gaps so you can stop watching from the sidelines.

You already know the system's rigged, but that doesn't mean you're stuck. But remember, this is your shot to building something Black Rock and their corporate counterparts can't touch. So don't waste it. I'll see you next time. Take care. And that wraps up. up the epic show. If you found this episode valuable, who else do you know that might too?
