Bills opposing housing

passed · Michigan · House Aug 26, 2026

HB 6243: Property: land sales; prohibition of purchase of residential property by certain businesses; modify. Amends secs. 3 & 7 of 2026 PA 32 (MCL 125.853 & 1125.857).

HB 6243 amends Michigan law to prohibit large institutional investors from purchasing single-family homes, with the restriction applying to entities that control more than 100 such properties and manage at least $375 million in assets. The bill defines specific exceptions that allow these investors to continue buying homes through build-to-rent programs, renovate-to-rent initiatives that meet structural standards, and homeownership assistance schemes that offer financial support or credit reporting benefits to renters. Additionally, the legislation permits acquisitions resulting from foreclosure or loss mitigation efforts, provided the properties are sold within a commercially reasonable timeframe, and allows for the transfer of homes already owned by these investors prior to the law's effective date.

HR 9514: Homeownership Eligibility Reform Act

The Homeownership Eligibility Reform Act restricts access to government-backed and private mortgage insurance for single-family homes to individuals who are U.S. citizens. Specifically, the bill amends laws governing the Federal Housing Administration, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac to require that borrowers for one-to-four-unit properties must be citizens to qualify for their mortgage products. This change directly affects foreign nationals and non-citizen residents who currently might purchase homes with these types of financing, effectively limiting their eligibility for these specific mortgage programs.
