I get that, but they don’t seem to be selling? There was this big rush to buy when interest rates were low (which wouldn’t even matter to big-time investors) but not to resell? What is the point of sitting on the empty properties?

They were still selling them back off like crazy for most of last year. The market has definitely slowed up considerably since about last November with the feds increasing the interest rates and now the threat of the national debt ceiling not being raised... A lot of those assholes are currently stuck with the bulk of what they bought up around that time.
