Though I agree with the sentiments regarding large scale firms creating the housing crash, then buying back the assets in liquidation, this article makes it as though this is the first time a large publicly traded company has been in the housing rental market.

There are many companies that have been managing properties as their business model for years, so to point out that this is something new and possibly evil is incorrect.
