Investors are selling their real estate because...

[Rob Evans]

I have an open-ended question, but I will throw it out there anyway.  My wife was surfing the internet and saw a page with the title "Investors are selling their real estate because...".  She did read the article, and she could not find it again.  Now, she has tasked me with finding it, but I have had no luck.  My hunch is that the article was about some type of government action, IRS or otherwise, that is scaring investors into selling off real estate investments.

So my question is, "Are there any recent and notable government actions that would cause real estate investors to panic into selling off their properties?".

 Not that I know of. 

Some of us sold because we've been doing it a long time and were tired, values and interest rates were high while cap rates were about even with the 2yr treasury yield. 

The work RE requires better earn a premium far above hassle-free treasury yields. Time to find a chair.
