Why? because the unit price is lower? Can't zillow just... buy less houses? I don't see anything different between zillow buying a $500k house and one hundred used cars worth $5000 each.



Easier to sell 50 cars than 1/2 of a house tho.


While I don't doubt this effect exists, I seriously doubt it's a significant factor when you're dealing with 7000 houses.

7000 figure from: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29081118
