What it does

The Stop Post-Disaster Vultures Act would prohibit institutional investors—defined as individuals or entities owning at least 75 single-family homes—from soliciting offers to purchase properties in areas affected by a major disaster for six months following a federal disaster declaration. The ban applies to solicitations made via mail, interstate wire, or any other method of contact. The bill amends the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act to add this prohibition, aiming to prevent exploitation of vulnerable homeowners in the aftermath of disasters.
