The company was established in October 2012 by B.

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]
