Blackstone has filed eviction lawsuits against hundreds of tenants across the US.
The investor is winding down what became one of the real estate industry’s most generous pandemic-era forbearance programmes, in an attempt to boost financial returns at the company’s redemption-hit real estate fund.
Court records from Georgia and Florida show that companies owned by Blackstone have begun legal proceedings against dozens of tenants every month since August, launching more cases in a typical week than the total for the first seven months of 2022.
