AN ACT ESTABLISHING A TASK FORCE TO STUDY THE REGULATION OF CORPORATE HOUSING ACQUISITIONS.

HB 6962 establishes a task force to study how large corporations acquiring residential properties affects housing affordability, rental prices, and homeownership opportunities in the state. The task force, composed of legislative leaders and housing officials, will examine policies to limit corporate property acquisitions or regulate such purchases. It must submit a final report to the legislature by January 1, 2026, with no immediate regulatory changes or fiscal impact. This bill does not enact new laws but sets up a study to inform future policy decisions. The task force will operate until its report is submitted or January 1, 2026, whichever comes later.
