U.S. single-family rental manager named in a 2026 FTC enforcement action.

Progress Residential manages tens of thousands of U.S. single-family rentals. A 2023 investigation described tenant complaints about fees and eviction filings. In November 2026, the FTC and four states alleged hidden charges and other tenant-related practices; a proposed $49.75 million settlement contains no admission of wrongdoing.
