According to a congressional investigation, Invitation Homes, a Dallas-based corporate landlord, filed evictions against tenants during the federal eviction moratorium and declined money from federal rental assistance programs. Invitation, which owns more than 80,000 homes across the United States, saw its profits grow to record highs during the pandemic, and the average monthly rent for their homes increased 10 percent from the start of 2020 to the end of 2021.
