Chattanooga’s housing market is shifting. Nearly half the homes in the city are now rentals, with many owned by investors and out-of-state landlords. In this episode, we unpack the data behind rising absentee ownership, what it means for local buyers and renters, and how the trend compares across Hamilton, Walker, and Catoosa Counties. Whether you're buying, renting, or investing, here’s what you need to know about who really owns Chattanooga.
