AMH

American Homes 4 Rent (NYSE:AMH) is a Maryland-based real estate investment trust (REIT) that was founded in 2012 and went public in August 2013. The company emerged as a leader in the single-family rental (SFR) industry during the post-2008 financial crisis housing recovery, when institutional investors began acquiring distressed single-family homes to convert into rental properties. AMH operates as an internally managed REIT focused on acquiring, developing, renovating, leasing, and operating single-family detached homes as rental properties across 22 states. The company has grown to own over 53,000 properties and has established itself as a nationally recognized brand in the single-family rental market. In 2024, the company underwent a leadership transition with Bryan Smith becoming CEO, replacing founder David Singelyn who led the company for over 12 years.
