In this edition of The Conversation Hour we meet Georgie Armstrong who details her experience of being an affordable housing tenant in a mixed tenure development. Georgie shares her concerns that the grouping together of affordable housing residents to certain floors and not having the same level of access to amenities as full paying tenants perpetuates a sense of social exclusion. We also speak with an affordable housing researcher about what the government could and should be doing to improve the circumstances for people relying on the affordable housing scheme. Also in this edition, a review of the Rolling Stones latest offerings. Plus, why Melbourne coffee is actually pretty good.

As the U.S. continues to face a severe shortage of affordable rental housing, much of the conversation centers on financing, development pipelines and the number of units being delivered. But for residents, the experience is also shaped by what happens inside the communities.For Lydia Liley, owner of Arrivare Interiors, thoughtful interior design can help affordable housing feel livable, durable and dignified without adding unnecessary cost. A registered interior designer with more than a decade of experience in multifamily design, Liley works at the intersection of budget discipline, material performance and resident experience.In the July episode of Mission Success: Women in Multifamily, she talks about why interior designers should be involved early in the development process, before project teams default to contractor-selected finishes or miss opportunities to elevate a space within budget. Sharing insights from her work on multiple projects across the country, she also discusses how lighting, flooring patterns, paint sheen, wood tones and even grout color can create warmth and visual interest without requiring custom materials.

Statewide, Washington needs to build 55,000 new homes per year to house new residents. The state is currently producing just 75% of that. That makes housing expensive... and it’s not just Washington state facing a long-term housing shortage. For years, Americans have been begging politicians to do something about the high cost of housing buying an adequate place to live. In late June, something happened that almost never happens in Washington, D.C.—Republicans and Democrats came together to pass a major bill aimed at unlocking the housing supply. The bill is called the 21st Century Road to Housing Act, and it just became law over the weekend. Some lawmakers are calling this bill the most consequential housing reform in decades. On today's episode, we look at what it can really deliver. Thank you to the supporters of KUOW, you help make this show possible!

What does a lifetime of leadership look like? In this episode of WAHNcast's 50 Over 50 Women of Influence in Affordable Housing series, Jennifer Green sits down with Laura Archuleta, President and CEO of Jamboree Housing, for a thoughtful conversation about the experiences that shaped nearly four decades in affordable housing. Laura reflects on how her family's own housing journey inspired her career, why staying curious opened doors she never expected, and how meaningful connections have shaped both her leadership and her organization's growth. She also shares why, after 37 years in the industry, she feels a deep responsibility to help develop the next generation of affordable housing leaders. From mentorship and family to kindness, collaboration, and lifelong learning, this episode is a reminder that the most meaningful careers aren't built by having every step planned. They're built by staying curious, investing in people, and finding ways to contribute along the way.
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.

Key Takeaways311-unit affordable community in Goodlettsville, TN with 1–3 bedroom units, 11,000+ SF of retail, and a 5,000 SF clubhouse.Ground-floor retail used for placemaking, Main Street activation, and creating a live-work environment that adds value for residents and the city.Capital stack: ~40% tax credit equity, ~50% favorable tax-exempt permanent debt, ~10% local soft funding; initial budget was ~$8M over and required heavy value engineering.Amazon's Housing Equity Fund was a key capital partner; locking a 4.5% construction and perm rate on a 40-year loan helped save the deal amid rising rates.Clubhouse is 100% solar powered with Tesla Powerwalls; project uses sustainability and design to break old “affordable housing” stereotypes.Business model: impact-focused but profitable by stacking tax credits, cheaper debt, and soft money instead of charging high rents.Long-term mission: commit to up to 99 years of affordability, with recapitalization and upgrades after 15–20 years while keeping units affordable.Core lessons: tell a compelling story and create a strong sense of place, and work with partners who can creatively problem-solve when costs and conditions change.

Here's a question that makes almost every Australian a bit uncomfortable if they're honest with themselves. Do you actually want housing to become more affordable, or do you just want it to become more affordable for your kids while your own home keeps growing in value? That tension sits underneath almost every conversation about housing affordability in this country, and it's rarely spoken about directly. By the end of this episode, you'll understand why affordability isn't really one problem but several problems wearing the same name, why a property crash wouldn't actually solve anything, and why the real path forward for Australia is a much slower and more deliberate one than most people expect. In this episode I'm speaking with Simon Kuestenmacher, and we unpack why housing affordability is more complex than the headlines suggest. We explore why affordability isn't one problem, but several issues hiding under the same label. We discuss how a property crash would not fix the structural pressures driving Australia's housing debate. We look at the tension between wanting cheaper homes for the next generation and preserving wealth in existing property. We also examine why slower, more deliberate change is the only realistic path forward for Australia's housing future. Takeaways • Housing affordability includes income, supply, migration, and policy pressures all at once. • Rising property values can create wealth for owners while worsening access for first-home buyers. • A property crash would damage confidence, savings, and household balance sheets broadly. • Slow housing reform helps avoid panic while still improving long-term market stability. • Population growth continues to pressure demand even when new supply is expanding. • Affordability debates often mix emotional arguments with very different economic realities. • Existing homeowners may support change for others while resisting value declines themselves. • Demographic shifts strongly influence where demand grows across cities and regions. • Short-term headlines can distract investors from structural trends shaping future property performance. • Better decisions come from understanding trade-offs rather than chasing simplistic housing slogans.

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.
There are advantages and disadvantages to developing real estate in any location. When it comes to affordable rental housing, some locations qualify for a 30% basis boost, which translates to the potential for generating 30% more low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) equity. On this week's episode of the So You Want to Be a LIHTC Developer, Michael Novogradac, CPA, and Thomas Stagg, CPA, discuss three types of locations eligible for a 30% basis boost: qualified census tracts (QCTs), difficult development areas (DDAs) and a basis boost eligible to developments that have received 9% LIHTC allocation. The two conclude by introducing a new resource available through Novogradac, the Qualified Census Tract Estimator tool.

Land-home development is one of the most overlooked strategies in affordable housing, and most real estate investors have never seriously considered it. The model is straightforward: buy a parcel of land, order a brand new manufactured home from a factory, place it permanently on the property, and sell the land and home together to a first-time buyer. In this episode, Robert Howell breaks down how he built a business around this strategy, why manufactured housing delivers exceptional value at a price point stick-built homes cannot match, and how he uses mobile home parks as a long-term tax offset for the short-term capital gains his land-home packages generate. About Robert Howell Robert Howell is a real estate investor and developer based in the upstate of South Carolina. He owns 250 lots across approximately 25 small and mid-sized mobile home parks and completes land-home development packages at scale, closing 50 deals last year with a target of 75 to 100 this year. He came to real estate from event marketing, bought his first mobile home park in 2020 with no prior experience, and has since built a vertically integrated operation combining long-term park ownership with active land-home development. What We Cover in This Episode What land-home development is and how it differs from mobile home park investing Why manufactured housing is cheaper to build than stick-built homes at a comparable quality How Robert builds a complete 3-bedroom, 2-bath home on owned land for $125,000 to $140,000 The full land-home development timeline from acquisition to sold: targeting 4 to 6 months How to find motivated land sellers through direct mail, cold calling, texting, and wholesalers The 30 to 45 day due diligence process: soil, water, power, driveway, and deed restrictions Why deed restrictions and HOA covenants are the biggest hidden risk in land-home development The de-titling process: how to convert a manufactured home from DMV title to real property How Robert uses cost segregation and bonus depreciation in mobile home parks to offset short-term capital gains from land-home flips Why small and mid-sized mobile home parks in South Carolina have low competition from institutional buyers How 95% of land-home buyers use FHA loans and what that means for deal timelines Why Robert targets scattered lots rather than full subdivisions for risk diversification How Robert structured his team to handle 50 land-home packages a year with a project manager and virtual assistants The below-market rent opportunity in small mobile home parks and how to approach rent increases responsibly Key Insight Robert bought a mobile home park in 2020 with no prior experience in the asset class. He evaluated it the way he still evaluates every deal today: revenue minus expenses minus debt service. If the number is positive, he moves. That first park sold a year later at a profit large enough to fund his next round of acquisitions. He now owns 25 parks and closes land-home packages two at a time — and he got two houses under contract at a baseball game on a Saturday night. Why This Episode Matters Manufactured housing sits at the intersection of two forces most investors ignore: a shortage of affordable housing and a regulatory environment that makes new mobile home parks nearly impossible to build. Robert's model exploits both. Investors willing to learn the asset class, understand the due diligence requirements, and get their dealer's license are entering a market with motivated sellers, limited institutional competition, and a deep pool of FHA-qualified first-time buyers.

Flagstaff City Councilwoman Lori Matthews gives an update on the ongoing battle against sex trafficking throughout rural Arizona. She also talks about the struggle for affordable housing, the cost of living explosion and the wrong track Flagstaff has taken down the costly road of sustainability.
Manufactured housing is one of the most overlooked sectors in American real estate, yet it plays a critical role in addressing the nation's affordable housing shortage. According to the American Housing Survey (AHS), there are approximately 7.2 million occupied manufactured homes in the United States, accounting for 5.4% of all occupied housing. These communities provide an affordable housing solution for millions of Americans, particularly those living in rural areas and lower-income households. In this episode, Kevin McShan sits down with Leo Young, Founder of Cornell Communities, a real estate investment firm dedicated to acquiring and operating manufactured housing communities that generate both financial returns and meaningful social impact. Leo's journey is anything but conventional. Before founding Cornell Communities, he generated more than $50 million in real estate sales, worked on the acquisitions team of a $4.5 billion private equity real estate fund, and became the top regional salesperson at Tesla. Today, he combines institutional investment expertise, entrepreneurial leadership, and operational experience to help investors build long-term wealth while expanding access to quality affordable housing. Driven by his mission to positively impact one million lives through real estate, Leo has also built an engaged community of more than 30,000 aspiring and active investors through his Investor Club and podcast. His practical approach demonstrates how busy professionals can move beyond relying solely on earned income by creating passive cash flow through thoughtfully selected real estate investments. Throughout this conversation, Leo shares why manufactured housing communities continue to attract sophisticated investors, how to evaluate risk in commercial real estate, the lessons he's learned from building a business across multiple states, and why financial independence is about creating freedom—not simply accumulating wealth. He also discusses burnout, entrepreneurship, leadership, and how investing with purpose can strengthen both communities and investment portfolios. Whether you're an experienced investor, an entrepreneur, or someone searching for new ways to build long-term financial security outside of traditional Wall Street investments, this episode offers valuable insights into one of today's most resilient and impactful real estate sectors For more information: https://cornellcommunities.com/ LinkedIn: @LeoY.

Text the show! Congress just passed a major housing bill designed to increase affordable housing across America.But there's one question that rarely gets asked:Is affordable housing the same thing as affordable homeownership?In this Sequel Sunday, Chad Law takes a common-sense look at the new legislation, separating the headlines from the fine print. From tax incentives and zoning to voter psychology and government accountability, this episode explores why building more housing doesn't necessarily make it easier for Americans to own a home.Topics include: • Breaking down the new federal housing bill • Affordable housing vs. affordable homeownership • Why starter homes continue to disappear • The incentives driving housing policy • Taxpayer accountability • The growing gap between political headlines and economic reality
Metro promised voters affordable housing. Instead, its 2018 housing bond has produced some of the least affordable subsidized units in Oregon history.Why? Metro insisted on funding almost exclusively three to six story buildings—projects that require elevators, oversized common areas, and far more concrete and steel than low rise construction. Those choices alone drove costs up by 50 percent per livable square foot. One project in Hollywood, an 11-story tower, cost nearly double that.Metro also limited development to nonprofit builders. That sounds frugal, but it isn't. Nonprofits typically take about 12 percent in developer fees, then they hire the same for profit contractors who build market rate housing. Studies show that nonprofit led projects cost about 20 percent more per square foot than for profit ones.The result? Metro's subsidized units average $490,000 per apartment—for just 700 square feet. That's roughly $700 per square foot, two to three times the cost of building a single-family home.And the damage doesn't stop there. These projects pull scarce construction labor away from market housing, driving prices up for everyone else. Meanwhile, property taxes used to repay the bond make homeownership even harder for working families.Metro says it's solving an affordability crisis. In reality, its density first policies helped create it—and its housing program is making it worse. We can't afford Metro's affordable housing.Read the report at cascadepolicy.org. I'm Naomi Inman.

Americans are stretched thin and you probably know why: Housing. It's become increasingly, persistently unaffordable, and for many, simply out of reach. Americans are moving less, are forming fewer households and are spending too much of their income on housing according to an annual report just released by Harvard. Will Trump end up signing the 21st Century Road to Housing Act now on his desk and if he does, will it make housing any more affordable? Francis Torres, Director of Housing & Infrastructure for the Bipartisan Policy Center, joins The Excerpt to share his analysis of the crisis.Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.

Trump's Petty Politics? Why No One Stops Him | The Karel Cast Is the presidency becoming more about personal grudges than public service? Today, Karel examines a week of escalating political drama as Donald Trump reportedly lashes out at members of his own party, refuses to support housing legislation, and makes claims without publicly presented evidence. Is this simply politics as usual—or something more concerning? Why would a president oppose a bill designed to help Americans buy homes? Why attack members of his own party for exercising congressional oversight? And why do so many elected officials continue to tolerate behavior that would end most political careers? Karel explores the power, politics, and personality behind the headlines—and explains why he believes so many people continue to look the other way. Plus: • The latest health headlines • Entertainment news to kick off your weekend • Commentary you won't hear anywhere else

Sweeping legislation in Congress is aimed at lowering the cost of housing. The fate of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act is still questionable, but if it is approved it would, among other things, remove some barriers to housing construction, especially in major cities. While the bill enjoys relatively rare bipartisan support, Native American affordable housing advocates say it is a missed opportunity to address long-standing issues faced by a population disproportionately affected by housing affordability. It includes provisions for tribal housing improvement, but Native housing experts say it falls far short of what's needed. Mostly, Native advocates are pushing for reauthorizing the Native American Housing Assistance and Self Determination Act (NAHASDA), the block grant program driving the construction and repair of thousands of homes in Native communities over the last three decades. It's authorization expired more than a dozen years ago. We'll discuss recent progress and ongoing needs in affordable housing.
