History

The company was established in October 2012 by B. Wayne Hughes, the founder of Public Storage.[2] It was one of the first large public companies to begin investing heavily in single-family homes, following the entry of The Blackstone Group into the field in 2012.[3] Early funding for the company included a $600 million investment from the Alaska Permanent Fund.[2]

In August 2013, the company became a public company via an initial public offering.[1]

In March 2016, the company merged with American Residential Properties, Inc.[4]

In January 2023, the company announced a branding change from American Homes 4 Rent to AMH in a public news release and a notice to investors.[5][6]
