The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) announced Wednesday that renters across the United States will receive more than $47.2 million in refunds after regulators accused housing giant Invitation Homes of misleading tenants with hidden fees and unfair rental practices.
The payments are part of a settlement tied to a 2024 lawsuit filed by the federal agency. Regulators said the Dallas-based company deceived renters about the real cost of leasing homes and charged fees that were not clearly disclosed in advertisements or lease agreements.
