Blackstone is fire-selling houses in Florida as the state faces its worst real estate crisis in decades.

There are concerning signs in Florida’s real estate market. Real estate giant Blackstone has begun liquidating its housing portfolio in the state, selling properties at a loss. For instance, they’ve listed homes in St. Petersburg at prices lower than their purchase costs, such as a house bought for $380,000 two years ago, now listed for $370,000—a $10,000 loss. This trend suggests potential trouble ahead for home prices, particularly in markets like St. Petersburg. The broader impact of Blackstone’s decision to sell at a loss indicates a possible market downturn, contrasting with the pandemic era when institutional investors aggressively bought properties, driving up prices and reducing inventory. As investor ownership plays a substantial role in the U.S. housing market, this shift could trigger further declines in home prices, affecting both large corporations like Blackstone and smaller mom-and-pop investors.
