They mean skilled professionals who make boatloads of money spotting and leaping on every decent property that hits the market, or is about to, while the rest of us - those seeking a home to actually live in - get to fight over the remains.

Zillow wasn't investing for the rental market. It was trying to automate house flipping, a much riskier proposition.
