Podcasts about Affordable housing

Oregon has given developers $1.4 billion to fund affordable housing as the cost of developing each subsidized apartment has nearly doubled. But thanks to a carve-out in its public records law, the state doesn’t have to provide the details of that spending. Rob Davis, an investigative reporter at ProPublica, joins us with the story.

Manufactured housing assets and mobile home communities, along with single-room occupancy motels, and multifamily properties, are key sources of Naturally Occurring Affordable Housing. On this episode, Proactive Realty Group's Canaan Williams (ImpactAlpha Edge) tells how he has acquired and renovated nearly two dozen distressed, condemned or nearly abandoned assets and rehabilitated them, including with energy upgrades, while preserving below-market rents. Dr. Van, as he is known, knows housing from growing up in a working-class Bay Area family that relied on Section 8 subsidies. South Carolina-based Proactive's fixed-income strategy promises monthly payments from the rental stream.

Welcome to Night City, where housing is a shipping container, breakfast is kibble, and your most reliable neighbor is a rat named Greg. This week, Marky Day and Dave Costanzo accept a perfectly normal freelance job involving stalking, blackmail, corporate espionage, breaking and entering, and possibly assault. Fortunately, Marky has love in his heart, a mandolin in his bag, and the negotiating instincts to voluntarily reduce their payment by half. Dave, meanwhile, is an elite Netrunner capable of defeating corporate security, provided nobody asks him to walk quietly across a lobby without falling directly onto his face. Show Notes Marky Day and Dave Costanzo officially enter Night City for their first Cyberpunk RED adventure, but not before Tyler reveals that peer pressure convinced him to contact Brennan Lee Mulligan and possibly recover DiceGoblin.com. Having exhausted all responsible business decisions, the group finally turns to crime. Marky wakes in his increasingly hot storage container, works out, eats some kibble, and contemplates writing a song about how love could solve society's problems. He is a rockerboy, vigilante, and aggressively compassionate street philosopher who will never judge someone too harshly, though he may beat them up for their own personal growth. Next door, Dave Costanzo lives among cables, computer equipment, and spilled kibble. His breakfast is quickly claimed by Greg, the local rat and apparently the most dependable member of the team. Their morning changes when Marky receives a call from J-ZK, a colorful fashion designer and 3D weapons artist who helped support his music career. A rival artist calling himself Gangster 3D has been stalking her, threatening her, attempting to hack her agent, and using stolen private material to blackmail her. She believes he may also sabotage an important presentation to Sanroo. J-ZK asks Marky and Dave to break into the Discom corporate building, find Gangster 3D's operation, and steal the incriminating information from his computer. She initially offers them 5,000 eddies, but Marky decides that is far too generous and successfully negotiates their pay down to 2,500 each. Somewhere in Night City, a fixer feels a sudden disturbance in the economy. To get inside, Marky uses Charismatic Impact to locate one of his corporate fans at the Afterlife. John John may not work for Discom, but he works for Biotechnica and is willing to escort them to the building and vouch for them at security. Marky supports their cover story with a crumpled folder of sheet music masquerading as confidential briefing documents. Once inside, the pair begins searching for a network access point. Marky moves through the lobby like a seasoned professional. Dave rolls a critical failure on stealth, falls directly onto the floor, and explains to the nearby security guard that his shoe came untied. This works because security in Night City has apparently seen much worse before lunch. While Dave connects to the building's network, Marky provides cover by pretending to conduct an important corporate conversation. Dave bypasses a password, takes control of an employee-only door, and searches the network for information about Gangster 3D. He discovers the appointment calendar of Mr. Fromider, an executive on the twentieth floor. Fromider has met with Gangster 3D five times in the past two weeks and has also been meeting with several minor local artists. The pattern suggests that Gangster 3D may be involved in poaching artists like J-ZK for some larger corporate scheme. Marky and Dave slip into the private elevator, but Marky's incredible perception reveals a hidden sleep-gas system designed to incapacitate unauthorized passengers. Dave disables the device by cutting the correct wire, proving that he is significantly better at defeating electronic security than standing upright in public. The elevator still requires authorization, forcing Dave to jack into the network again. This time he must pass a Wisp Black ICE program to reach the elevator controls. He activates his Armor program, races past the hostile software, and successfully takes control of the elevator. The Wisp catches him before he can escape and attempts to damage his brain while reducing his available Net Actions. Dave's Armor absorbs the damage, allowing him to slide away from the pursuing program and safely jack out. The episode ends as the elevator begins climbing toward the twentieth floor. Marky and Dave are officially inside, Mr. Fromider is waiting somewhere above them, and the part of the mission where everything becomes violent has probably just begun. Key Takeaways The episode demonstrates how Cyberpunk RED combines social interaction, stealth, investigation, physical security, and Netrunning within the same mission. Marky's Charismatic Impact turns his fans into useful contacts. John John helps the team pass the building's first layer of security without violence. Marky and Dave complement each other well. Marky handles persuasion, distractions, and social situations, while Dave manages computers, access points, and electronic security. Critical successes and failures have immediate narrative effects. Marky repeatedly notices hidden dangers, while Dave's critical stealth failure nearly exposes the mission. Netrunners connect through physical access points and enter a layered Net Architecture containing passwords, files, control nodes, and Black ICE. Pathfinder allows a Netrunner to map parts of the architecture before moving deeper, reducing the risk of blindly encountering dangerous programs. Control nodes connect the digital and physical environments. Dave uses them to unlock an employee door and activate the private elevator. Disconnecting from a network resets most changes. A Netrunner must reach the bottom of the architecture and install a virus to create a lasting effect. Black ICE can attack a Netrunner directly, causing brain damage or interfering with their available Net Actions. Dave's Armor program completely absorbs the Wisp's damage, demonstrating the value of choosing and activating defensive programs before engaging hostile architecture. The team learns that Mr. Fromider has met repeatedly with Gangster 3D and several local artists, suggesting a broader scheme beyond J-ZK's personal blackmail problem. The adventure closes on a cliffhanger as Marky and Dave ascend toward the twentieth floor, having successfully completed the portion of the infiltration where nobody has shot them yet.

The Seattle City Council faces a big vote this week to ban so-called "junk fees" for renters--added costs like pet fees or mailbox fees that are tacked on to monthly rent, sometimes without disclosure to the renter. Will the ban help create a more transparent and understandable process for renters, or (as some landlords claim) simply raise rents citywide and make Seattle less affordable?Seattle Channel host Brian Callanan talks with Seattle Mayor's Office Senior Policy Advisor Kerem Levitas for a special episode of Seattle's finest coffee break political podcast.

Australia is facing one of its biggest housing challenges in decades, with the federal government's National Housing Accord aiming to deliver 1.2 million new homes by 2029. But what if the biggest obstacle isn't planning approvals, land supply, or even skills shortages? A major new report from RMIT University, prepared for the Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute, argues that the industry's chronic boom-and-bust cycles are the real culprit—creating labour shortages during the good times, losing skilled workers during downturns, and ultimately reducing both productivity and build quality. Joining us for this episode is the report's lead author, Associate Professor Andrea Sharam from RMIT University, to unpack why Australia's housing system needs structural reform if we're serious about delivering more homes.

I think I did a pretty good job of restricting my tangents and side-tangents here to no more than 14 topics at once.

New affordable and supportive housing units are in the works in the Bronx. WFUV's Anne Jackson has more. The end of summer is primary season. WFUV's Xenia Gonikberg breaks down the key races to watch and why this election is different from previous ones for the state of Connecticut. This month, there's quite a few astronomical events that can be seen from New York City-but how do hopeful stargazers drown out the city lights? WFUV's Livia Regina spoke with the Amateur Astronomers Association, a nonprofit that promotes studying space, to find out how, and why, to see the stars. A larger than life hot dog sculpture was on display in Times Square. It was created by two local artists, and it's meant to represent themes in American politics and culture. WFUV Cityscape host Sienna Reinders spoke to the artists behind the artwork and went to Times Square to check it out.

Cindy's path into affordable housing began with a newspaper ad she almost ignored and a due diligence checklist she had to figure out one step at a time. More than 20 years later, she reflects on the mentors who believed in her before she believed in herself, the confidence that comes from asking questions, and why some of the best careers are built one challenge at a time. Along the way, Cindy shares the story of helping launch WAHN Alabama, mentoring the next generation of women in affordable housing, and why the energy of WAHN is something she wishes everyone could "bottle up and sprinkle everywhere." It's a joyful conversation about taking chances, lifting others as you climb, and finding purpose in work that changes lives.

Buying a house or condo is becoming harder for many people in Minnesota. The math is simple. Home costs are rising and most people's incomes aren't keeping up. But solutions are more complicated. Communities need to build more low-cost homes, help buyers with down payment assistance and lower-interest loans, and help current homeowners maintain and stay in their homes. MPR News host Angela Davis talks with Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity's CEO Chris Coleman about how the nonprofit organization is working on all these fronts to tackle the housing affordability crisis. Guest: Chris Coleman became president and CEO of Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity in 2018 after serving as mayor of St. Paul from 2006 to 2018. He worked previously as an investment advisor for RBC and served for six years on the St. Paul City Council.Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity uses thousands of volunteers every year.

Democrats, Read the Room: Why AOC, Mamdani and Young Voters Could Decide the Future Republicans are already branding Democrats as “socialists” and “communists” to frighten voters—but should Democrats really let those attacks dictate their agenda? Candidates such as Zohran Mamdani are winning because younger voters want affordable housing, healthcare, economic fairness and meaningful change. They're listening to democratic socialists, liking what they hear and turning out to vote. So why are establishment Democrats fighting the candidates energizing their own base instead of working with leaders such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez? Karel asks whether Democrats truly want transformative change—or simply want to preserve the political status quo. Also: Working from home remains enormously popular, but a San Francisco landlord reportedly wants to charge residents an additional $200 if they work from their apartments. Is that a reasonable fee, an invasion of privacy or another example of renters being squeezed? Join the conversation: Should Democrats embrace their progressive wing? And does a landlord have any right to charge tenants for working from home? Support The Karel Cast at Patreon. Watch, like, comment and subscribe at YouTube.

Middle East on the Brink, Berlin Pride Terror, and America's Housing Crisis | The Karel Cast The world feels like it's balancing on the edge of a knife. Iran says it will stop bombing if the attacks against it stop, while the Houthis open another dangerous front by targeting Saudi Arabia. Is the Middle East moving toward de-escalation—or toward an even wider regional conflict? And what role is U.S. leadership playing as tensions continue to rise? Then, tragedy strikes at one of the world's oldest Pride celebrations. A deadly attack at Berlin Pride leaves people dead and injured, raising difficult questions about extremism, intolerance, and whether religious ideologies that promote hatred can coexist with an open, democratic society. How much responsibility do political leaders and inflammatory rhetoric bear when violence follows? Plus, I made what I thought was a simple comment about a two-bedroom apartment in Los Angeles renting for $2,500. The response? Thousands of people debating why housing has become unaffordable for so many Americans—and who is really to blame. Join me as we cut through the headlines, challenge assumptions, and talk about the stories shaping our world today.

Linda Mandolini didn't plan on a career in affordable housing. Like so many leaders in our industry, she discovered it almost by accident during a college internship and never looked back. In this episode of the WAHNcast 50 Over 50 Women of Influence in Affordable Housing series, host Babbie Jaco sits down with Linda, CEO and President of Eden Housing, to explore nearly four decades of leadership, innovation, and impact. Their conversation goes far beyond development. Linda shares why preserving affordable housing matters just as much as building it, how sustainable organizations are created, what today's leaders need to succeed, and why mentorship has shaped every stage of her career. Along the way, she reflects on the women who opened doors for her, the importance of helping emerging leaders "jump into the pool," and why solving complex problems has always been a team sport. As Linda reminds us, affordable housing isn't just about buildings. It's about creating the stability that allows people, families, and entire communities to thrive.

7.22.2026 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Nolan Wells Autopsy Findings. Warnock on Affordable Housing. Kadir Skinner Bodycam Contradicts Cops. Abbott Attacks Black Voters._ Nolan Wells' independent autopsy preliminary findings pose new questions about what happened to him. We'll share what Civil Rights Attorney Ben Crump calls "significant findings." A millennial and minority-owned research firm is rolling out new polling and research about Black voters' opinions on voting rights following the Callais v. Louisiana decision and heading into the midterm elections. HIT Strategies' president will explain how they plan to get Black folks to the polls. Delaware officials have released body camera footage that seems to contradict the initial police report related to the fatal shooting of 19-year-old Kadir Skinner. The family attorney will walk us through the videos and why the cops' story doesn't add up. Republican Texas Governor Greg Abbott has a lot to say about James Talarico and Black Voters. We'll break down why Abbott doesn't know what the hell he's talking about.

Developers who receive low-income housing tax credits (LIHTCs) must incur at least 10% of the costs that are included in its reasonably expected basis by a specified date determined by federal and, often, state requirements in order to pass what is often called "the 10% test." On this week's episode of Tax Credit Tuesday's "So You Want to Be a LIHTC Developer" series, Michael Novogradac, CPA, and Karie McMillen, CPA, discuss the 10% test and how it came about. Novogradac and McMillen then dive into how the 10% test is calculated as a fraction, reviewing what makes up the denominator and what can potentially go into the numerator. They conclude by addressing some common challenges that developers face when it comes to meeting the 10% test.

President Donald Trump says he will not sign a bipartisan housing bill passed by Congress because the Senate has not passed a separate bill requiring proof of U.S. citizenship to vote, so the housing bill will become law without his signature at midnight tonight under the Constitution.

Send us Fan MailWhat if we've been asking the wrong question about America's housing crisis?Congress has passed one of the most significant housing bills in decades, with the stated goal of making housing more affordable by encouraging more construction, higher-density development, and changes to local zoning policies. But is building more homes really the solution?In this episode of Dishin' Dirt, I take a non-political, fact-based look at what the legislation actually does, how it could influence local communities, and why every homeowner, REALTOR®, builder, and buyer should understand the issues.Topics include:What is actually in the new federal housing billWhy zoning has traditionally been controlled by local governmentsHow federal incentives could influence future developmentThe debate over higher-density housing and neighborhood characterInfrastructure, traffic, schools, and who pays for growthDoes South Carolina really have a housing shortage?Are housing shortages different in the South than in the Northeast and West Coast?Why builders across South Carolina are offering incentives, rate buydowns, and price reductionsThe difference between a housing shortage and a homeownership affordability crisisThe one question every policymaker, REALTOR®, and homeowner should be askingWhether you support the legislation or have concerns about its long-term impact, this episode is designed to educate—not advocate. I will explore both sides of the debate while challenging listeners to think critically about the future of housing, property rights, local control, and the American Dream of homeownership.What do you think?Does South Carolina actually have a housing shortage?Should zoning decisions remain local, or should the federal government play a larger role in encouraging housing development?And most importantly...Have we confused a housing shortage with a homeownership crisis?Share your thoughts in the comments—we'd love to hear from you.
