Podcasts about Affordable housing

Affordable housing is one of the biggest buzzwords in real estate — but can it actually be profitable? In this episode of The Real Wealth Show, Kathy Fettke sits down with developer Evan Holladay to explain how affordable housing deals really work. With more than 1,200 units developed, Evan breaks down tax credits, incentives, and why more developers are pivoting in this direction. They discuss what "affordable" truly means, how the numbers pencil, and why new housing reforms could create major opportunity in 2026. If you're an investor looking for both impact and returns, this episode connects the dots.

Finding affordable housing has been a challenge in Colorado for years. A measure passed by voters statewide four years ago is starting to make a difference.

We also remember the loss of the occasionally high-strung, legendary coach of the Denver Nuggets, Doug Moe.

NYC Tax War, Billionaire Backlash, Trump's Ukraine Failure & The Culture Shift No One Wants to Admit Why does New York City bend over backward to protect billionaires while everyday people struggle to survive? Mayor Zohran Mamdani is threatening a 9.5% property tax increase if Albany blocks a proposed wealth tax. He calls it a “last resort.” But let's be honest — why is it always the middle class paying the bill while the ultra-rich get protected? Meanwhile in Napa Valley, famed French Laundry chef Thomas Keller and other wealthy Yountville business owners are pushing to pause an affordable housing project — citing parking and density concerns. But is it really about traffic… or keeping middle-income families out of Wine Country? And remember when Trump said he'd end the Ukraine war in a day? Russian attacks are up. Civilian deaths are rising. Peace talks are dragging. Another promise collapsing under reality. Plus — why is Wuthering Heights suddenly thriving at the box office? Why is steamy drama dominating streaming? Are cultural tastes shifting — and are women now driving the same kind of on-screen sexual demand long associated with men? This episode connects politics, power, wealth, war, and culture — and asks the uncomfortable questions no one else is asking. The Karel Show streams live Monday–Thursday at 10:30 AM PST.

Housing affordability is collapsing for America’s middle class—and small businesses are feeling the impact. On this episode of Main Street Matters, Elaine Parker sits down with real estate developer Michael Burkentine to break down the growing U.S. housing crisis and what it means for working families, entrepreneurs, and first-time homebuyers. With the U.S. facing an estimated 5 million home shortage, Burkentine explains how rising costs, restrictive zoning laws, labor shortages, and institutional homebuyers have turned America into a “renter nation.” They also dive into the proposed “Trump Homes” initiative—a bold plan to build up to 1 million entry-level homes through private-sector partnerships, deregulation, and innovative rent-to-own pathways designed to help Americans achieve homeownership again. In this episode: Why the U.S. is millions of homes short—and how we got here How housing impacts small businesses and Main Street growth The real reason starter homes disappeared The role of Wall Street investors in driving up home prices How zoning reform and deregulation could unlock supply The feasibility of building 1 million new homes Why trade jobs and workforce training are critical to solving the crisis As policymakers debate solutions ahead of key elections, this conversation highlights what must change to restore the American Dream of homeownership.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On today’s “Closer Look,” we share tributes to the late Rev. Jesse Jackson, and a prior interview host Rose Scott did with the civil rights champion from WABE’s ATL68 series. Jackson also dedicated his life to founding the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, working as a global humanitarian, running for president twice, and as part of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s inner circle. Jackson, known for his famous words, “Keep hope alive!” died Tuesday. He was 84. Scott also talks with Gerald Griggs, a civil rights attorney and past president of the Georgia NAACP, who shares his memories about Jackson. Also, Atlanta’s Zoning Review Board recently overruled a vote by a Kirkwood area neighborhood planning unit. The NPU had voted against a proposal for a 47-unit apartment building for unhoused seniors, which would include mental health services. However, the Board chose to move forward with the project, which would be located in a currently vacant lot located at 88 Howard St. NE. The property is owned by Turner Monumental AME Church, who is pursuing the development. Sean Keenan has followed the project for Atlanta Civic Circle and shares the latest with “Closer Look.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

NSW has moved fast to reform its planning system, promising to unlock housing supply through sweeping state-led controls. But zoning uplift alone doesn't build homes. In this episode, we ask the harder question many in property are thinking but few say out loud: is the system genuinely delivering housing, or quietly choking supply through feasibility constraints, delays, and unintended consequences?Joining us is James Oldknow, Special Counsel at Mills Oakley, who works daily at the sharp end of planning approvals, appeals, and the NSW Land & Environment Court. James breaks down why Transport Oriented Development (TOD) has produced little real-world uptake, while the Low-to-Mid Rise (LMR) policy is driving a surge of applications—particularly in Sydney's most expensive, tightly held suburbs.We unpack how affordable housing incentives are being used to make projects stack up, why premium locations like Mosman, Waverley, and Woollahra are seeing the most change, and how the new Housing Delivery Authority is fast-tracking large projects while sidelining local controls. Along the way, we tackle design quality, heritage, infrastructure strain, and the emotional toll these changes are having on established communities.For investors, homeowners, and anyone exposed to property in NSW, this episode is a reality check. And if you're wondering what could be coming in other states, this could be the canary in the coalmine. The reforms aren't a silver bullet—but they are already reshaping values, neighbourhoods, and long-term decisions for those paying attention.Episode Highlights00:00 — Introduction to NSW Planning System01:33 — Meet the Expert: James Oldknow04:41 — Challenges in TOD Applications08:33 — LMR Policy and Its Impact10:52 — Affordable Housing and Feasibility16:42 — Community Concerns and Planning Rigors26:53 — Development Typologies Across New South Wales28:59 — Concerns About Centralized Authority30:43 — Affordable Housing and Contribution Funds32:17 — Infrastructure and Traffic Concerns34:33 — Heritage and Environmental Considerations43:29 — Navigating Development Consents and Modifications45:29 — Final Thoughts and AdviceAbout the GuestJames Oldknow is Special Counsel in Mills Oakley's Planning and Environment team, specialising in planning and development law across New South Wales. He advises landowners and developers on projects of all sizes and regularly appears before councils, planning panels, and the NSW Land & Environment Court.Working daily within the approvals and appeals system, James sees firsthand where projects stall, why others succeed, and how state policies like LMR, TOD, and the Housing Delivery Authority operate in practice—not theory. His perspective is grounded in real projects, real constraints, and real outcomes, making him uniquely placed to cut through the policy noise and explain what NSW's planning reforms are actually delivering on the ground.Connect with JamesJames' LinkedIn Mills Oakley Website Mills Oakley LinkedIn ResourcesVisit our website:

Was the 2008 Housing Crisis Misdiagnosed? Kevin Erdmann on Supply, Policy, and the Myths We Still BelieveYou don't have to agree with every conclusion—but you do need to understand the argument.What if the biggest mistake of the 2008 financial crisis wasn't reckless lending or mass overbuilding—but a fundamental misdiagnosis of the problem itself?In this episode, we speak with Kevin Erdmann, senior scholar at the Mercatus Center and author of Shut Out, whose research challenges the mainstream narrative of the Great Financial Crisis.___________________________________________________Subscribe to Do You Ever Wonder for deep, non-consensus conversations on housing, real estate, policy, capital markets, and much more!Like, comment, and share if this episode challenges your assumptions.____________________________________________________Erdmann argues that the U.S. did not suffer from a nationwide housing oversupply in the 2000s. Instead, America entered the crisis with too few homes in the places people most wanted to live—and policymakers responded to the crash by tightening credit and regulation in ways that deepened the downturn and locked in today's housing shortages.This is a calm, data-driven conversation—not a hot take—about how housing supply, migration, zoning, and financial policy interacted in ways we still misunderstand.Topics discussed:Why Erdmann believes the U.S. never had a classic national housing bubbleThe difference between “closed-access” cities (NYC, SF, LA) and “contagion” cities (Phoenix, Florida markets)How migration and regional price signals distorted national narrativesWhy post-2008 credit tightening and regulation worsened the recessionWhat policymakers got wrong about housing risk and financial stabilityHow zoning laws and NIMBYism turned housing scarcity into a long-term crisisWhether today's housing market resembles 2006–2007—or something entirely differentWho bore the real costs of housing shortages—and who benefitedWhat investors, homebuyers, and policymakers are still misunderstanding todayWhy this matters nowWith housing affordability stretched, supply constrained, and rates reshaping demand, Erdmann's framework offers a critical lens for understanding:Why prices remain highWhy building hasn't kept up with demandWhy repeating old policy assumptions could make today's crisis worseYou don't have to agree with every conclusion—but you do need to understand the argument.Subscribe to Do You Ever Wonder for deep, non-consensus conversations on housing, real estate, policy, capital markets, and much more!Like, comment, and share if this episode challenges your assumptions.___________________________________________________Please subscribe to Do You Ever Wonder using the two links below, and don't be shy about sharing the podcast with your friends.Subscribe to Do You Ever Wonder on YouTube here:    / @doyoueverwonder943  Subscribe on your favorite streaming platform here: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1862986 _______________________________________________Hallmark Abstract Service...You Buy Real Estate, We Protect It!Questions about the podcast, NY title insurance, or the RE transaction process? Let us know at (646) 741-6101 or at info@hallmarkabstract

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), approved July 4, 2025, made various significant changes to the low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) incentive. Among key changes, the OBBBA lowered the threshold for private activity bond (PAB) financing required to qualify for 4% LIHTCs from 50% of a development's land and building costs to 25%. On this episode of the Tax Credit Tuesday podcast, Michael Novogradac, CPA, and Novogradac partner Dirk Wallace, CPA, explore how this change is affecting financing for affordable housing development. Novogradac and Wallace provide an overview of the 25% test and PABs, including recycled PABs. The pair also discuss how states are implementing the 25% financed-by test, as well as the ways developers are overcoming the financing gap the new test created. Finally, Novogradac and Wallace conclude by discussing how to maximize net operating income (NOI) by approaching operating expenses as efficiently as possible.

Welcome to The AZREIA Show!

In Washington State, 42% of Black households have zero net worth. It's a statistic echoed in Black communities across the nation--including here in Cleveland. The legacy of historical policies like segregation and redlining has impacted both homeownership and opportunities to build generational wealth today. Now, skyrocketing rents and a shrinking housing supply have put homeownership out of reach for many. But what if it doesn't have to be this way?rnrnEmerging in 2021, the Black Home Initiative is a new regional effort based in the Seattle-Tacoma region that seeks to target the racial inequities at the core of the housing ecosystem. The initiative is powered by the Civic Commons through a large network of 122 public, private, philanthropic, and nonprofit institutional partners. Together, they focus on growing the pool of homes for purchase; supporting Black households who want to buy a home and obtain a mortgage; and improving collaboration to create a more efficient and effective ecosystem for Black homeownership.rnrnHow can we work together to grow wealth and build vibrant communities through homeownership? Join us at the City Club as Alesha Washington from The Seattle Foundation leads a conversation with Michael Brown from the Civic Commons on what we can learn from the Black Home Initiative.

Patrick Barrett, with support from the Pioneer New England Legal Foundation, is challenging Cambridge's requirement that 20% of all new developments include affordable units, a policy known as “inclusionary zoning.”

Betty Boyd Caroli's biography of Mary Kingsbury Simkhovitch is the first full-length work on a seminal figure in the settlement house movement, which spearheaded efforts to improve the life of immigrants and to counter urban squalor in cities around America in the early 19th century. Greenwich House, the community center Simkhovitch founded in 1902 in Greenwich Village, then a destination point for new immigrants to New York, quickly gained a reputation equal to that of Jane Addams's Hull House in Chicago, providing services in health, recreation, education, and the arts (which Greenwich House continues to do to this day). Simkhovitch became a tireless advocate of public housing and has been called by some "the mother of public housing." She played a central role in designing and administering the first public housing projects in America during the New Deal, in which she was an integral figure. The National Housing Conference, which she founded in 1931, continues to operate in our current "housing crisis" as among the most prominent advocates for safe, affordable housing. She co-wrote the National House Act of 1937, the first piece of legislation to establish the federal government's responsibility to help provide low-income families with housing. A Slumless America: Mary K. Simkhovitch and the Dream of Affordable Housing (Oxford University Press, 2026) by Caroli, best-known for her work on presidential First Ladies, which has gone through multiple editions, will become the standard account of a truly remarkable life. Born in New England and educated in Boston and at the University of Berlin, Simkhovitch married a Russian intellectual seven years her junior who spoke no English and had no job prospects. Raising a family while working for her rapidly expanding set of causes, Simkhovitch was portrayed in a DC Comics series (also featuring Diana Prince) in the early 1940s as a "Wonder Woman of History" for her seeming ability to do it all: take on the full spectrum of urban ills while also raising and supporting her family. Her husband eventually joined the Columbia faculty and became a noted art collector, advising collectors such as J. P. Morgan, while she exposed the squalor of Downtown slums. The stress of trying to do it all took a heavy toll on Simkhovitch, but her lifelong, passionate advocacy of and contributions to housing reform continued unabated and remains both inspiring and relevant. Betty Boyd Caroli is a graduate of Oberlin College and holds an MA in Mass Communication from Annenberg School of University of Pennsylvania, as well as a Ph.D. in American Civilization from New York University. She studied at the Università Per Stranieri in Perugia, Italy, and the Salzburg Seminar in Austria. A Fulbright in Italy led her to teach at the British College in Palermo, the English School in Rome, and two branches of City University of New York (Queens College and Kingsborough Community College).

Several major legislative changes rocked the tax credit world, last year. Key developments such as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) will shape the tax credit landscape in 2026 and beyond. On this episode of the Tax Credit Tuesday podcast, Michael Novogradac, CPA, and Novogradac's Chief Public Policy Officer Peter Lawrence explore the current state of tax credit legislation and what may be on the horizon for 2026. Novogradac and Lawrence discuss various tax incentives, including the historic tax credit, the Neighborhood Homes Investment Act and the HOPE Act. The pair also discuss two "bonus" tax incentives that potentially may be on the horizon, the workforce housing tax credit and the Downtown Revitalization and Main Streets Act. Finally, the two discuss banking-related bills such as the ROAD to Housing Bill and the Housing for the 21st Century Act, which may grant banks the ability to invest more in new construction and preservation developments.

Organizers in Chicago just broke ground on a 45-unit affordable housing project specifically for Native Americans that is scheduled to open this year. The Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians just cut the ribbon in October for 40 new affordable housing units in Salem, Oreg. And Oakland, Calif. is working on 76 new homes for low-income Native Americans attached to a Native health facility. The surge in projects specifically geared toward urban Native Americans is meant to offset barriers that disproportionately affect their ability to keep a roof over their heads. We’ll hear about the factors fueling the surge in new affordable housing projects in various cities. GUESTS Shelly Tucciarelli (Oneida Nation of Wisconsin), executive director of Visionary Ventures NFP Corp. and vice president of the Chicago American Indian Community Collaborative Sky Waters (Osage), community development director at the Native American Youth and Family Center Anthony Guzman (Northern Ute), chief cultural officer at the Native American Health Center Bryan Singer (Crow), entrepreneur development specialist for the Montana Department of Commerce Indian Country Economic Development programs and member of the Mountain Shadow Association board Break 1 Music: Journey Home (song) Susan Aglukark (artist) The Crossing (album) Break 2 Music: Vipismal – The Hummingbird Song (song) Earl Ray (artist) Traditional Songs Of The Salt River Pima (album)
