In yet another sign that single-family rental owners are seeking out new arrangements to source product, Invitation Homes and PulteGroup have formed a partnership in which PulteGroup will supply the REIT with new houses. 

Specifically, Invitation Homes expects to purchase approximately 7,500 new homes over the next five years from PulteGroup, the nation's third-largest homebuilder. The company will design and build expressly for this purpose.

Invitation Homes and PulteGroup have already reached an agreement on the construction and sale of more than 1,000 homes across seven communities over the next several years. The first sales are expected to close in 2022. Initial projects are scheduled for delivery in Florida, Georgia, Southern California, North Carolina and Texas.
