Corporate Home Buying Under Fire | Charleston News

A new federal law, the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, just passed — and it’s a game-changer for homeowners. Big corporations owning over 350 single-family homes can’t buy any more, aiming to stop them from outbidding regular families with cash offers. The law also boosts housing supply by expanding rural programs and encouraging local approvals for accessory units and multi-family housing. It brings critical support to Habitat for Humanity with grants and simplified HUD funding for home repairs — especially vital for unsafe, deteriorating homes. Real estate pros are already seeing how corporate dominance pushes out everyday buyers, and while full effects won’t hit until 2027 and take five years to unfold, the goal is clear: more affordable homes for families chasing the American Dream.

South Carolina Gets $280K from 23andMe Breach Settlement | Charleston News

South Carolina’s getting $280K from a multistate settlement over a 23andMe data breach that exposed millions—including 80K South Carolinians—after the company ignored glaring security flaws and even blamed users. Part of a $150M deal across 42 states, only $18M will be distributed due to bankruptcy and other claims. 23andMe also agreed to pay $46.75M in a separate class-action settlement for claims filed by Feb 17. The company’s security failures included weak password protections, poor monitoring, and unpatched vulnerabilities. Complicating matters, 23andMe filed for bankruptcy in 2025, and its assets—including genetic data—were acquired by a nonprofit tied to its founder. While the payout is small compared to the damage, it’s a step toward accountability for mishandling sensitive genetic info.
