Roofstock

Last week, Gary Beasley, Co-Founder & Executive Chair at Roofstock, joined ResiClub’s Lance Lambert to discuss how shifting policy and market dynamics are shaping the single-family rental sector. Here are three key takeaways: 1️⃣ Addressing the U.S. Housing Shortage One of the biggest challenges in housing today is supply. Expanding access requires building and revitalizing more homes. Build-to-Rent continues to play an important role in delivering new housing and remains a solution—not a target for restriction. 2️⃣ The Long-Term View on Single-Family Rentals As Gary put it, SFR investments function like “an inflation-indexed bond with an equity kicker.” Beyond returns, they provide something even more important: access to quality housing, strong school districts, and stable communities for families who may not yet be in a position to buy in their desired neighborhoods. 3️⃣ The Role of Private Capital in Housing Stability Private capital has helped stabilize the housing market. After the downturn that began in 2007 and reached its low point around 2011–2012, the return of private investment supported the recovery by renovating vacant and distressed homes and returning them to the rental market, contributing to broader neighborhood revitalization. 🎥 You can watch the full webinar here: https://lnkd.in/e56mKBbr

Every month, we host at least one webinar for ResiClub members. Today, we’re hosting a webinar (5:30 p.m. ET—2:30 p.m. PT) that we’re opening up beyond just our paying members 👇 During webinar today, I’ll ask Roofstock executive chairman & co-founder Gary Beasley for his take on Trump’s proposed institutional homebuying ‘ban’ and where he thinks institutional capital’s involvement in the housing and single-family rental markets goes from here. Prior to founding Roofstock, Gary Beasley was the CEO of Waypoint Homes. Founded in 2009, Waypoint Homes was one of the early institutional housing investors that seized the opportunity presented by the 2008 housing market crash, acquiring distressed single-family properties at significantly reduced prices. In 2012, the Wall Street Journal reported that Waypoint Homes was the first institutional group to own over 1,000 single-family rentals. Betting that single-family rentals would attract the attention of more investors over time, Beasley left Waypoint (which was rolled up into Starwood and then later into institutional landlord giant Invitation Homes) to co-founded Roofstock in 2015 to help larger funds acquire and sell single-family rentals. In the years that followed, institutional capital believed the housing market had become undersupplied and began deploying more capital into build-to-rent. Want to watch it live today?

BPCON2025 is a wrap! We leave energized by the conversations, new connections, and insights shared throughout the week. One highlight: Chief Product Officer Heath Silverman's session, “Leveling the Playing Field: Leveraging AI and Analytics to Identify the Best Places to Invest and Buy.” Heath shared Stessa’s origin story and how the new Investment Property Marketplace makes investing smarter and more accessible. Two key takeaways: 1️⃣ Born from experience – After scaling a ~100 door portfolio, Heath faced the frustrations of spreadsheets, fractured management, and decentralized reporting. Those challenges inspired Stessa, now supporting 350K+ investors tracking ~1.5MM doors. 2️⃣ More data = better decisions – The Stessa Investment Property Marketplace gives every investor access to proprietary data and insights, leveling the playing field and making it easier than ever to identify opportunities that align with their goals.

Big News from Roofstock! We’re officially expanding into short-term rental (STR) management through a strategic investment in Casago, following the acquisition of Vacasa. This marks a major milestone as Roofstock enters the STR space, launching Casago franchises in: • Charleston, SC • Tampa/St. Petersburg, FL • The Oregon Coast (Rockaway Beach, Lincoln City & Pacific City) With this move, we’re bringing the same data-driven, institutional-grade service and tools that power our SFR platform—like Rental Genome™, Stessa, and real-time portfolio intelligence—to short-term rental investors. We’re also thrilled to welcome Craig Rashkow as Head of STR, bringing leadership experience from Sonder and Summer to scale this new division. The convergence of single-family rentals and short-term rentals is here. Roofstock is uniquely positioned to lead this evolution, and we couldn’t be more excited to get started. Special thanks to Coromandel Capital for backing this next chapter. https://lnkd.in/gHbgpCVn
