The merger is expected to enhance the size of the largest publicly-traded single-family rental company, California-based American Homes 4 Rent, which prior to the merger owned approximately 38,000 rental properties.

According to data they used from the American Housing Survey, over 14 million single-family homes in the U.S. were renter occupied in 2013. This represents 12 percent of the entire U.S. housing stock, or in other words, 1 in 8 U.S. households, and more than one-third of the rental housing stock.
