Mixed Evidence
“Nearly 27% of all homes sold in the first quarter of 2025 were bought by investors”
Preliminary data from Redfin indicates that 26.5% of homes purchased in Q1 2024 (not 2025) were bought by investors, which rounds to approximately 27%. However, Q1 2025 data is not yet available as of February 2026, and the claim appears to conflate 2024 data with 2025. The underlying statistic about investor share is accurate for the referenced time period but the year is misstated.
