Podcasts about Housing crisis

As Trump pushes towards a Friday tariff deadline and touts deals, a lot of the details remain a little murky. Politico’s Daniel Desrochers explains. Members of the Senate came together to agree on a rare bipartisan plan to fix America’s housing crisis. Liz Goodwin with the Washington Post has the story. A new report lays bare the starvation in Gaza that followed Israel’s blockade. Reporting from NPR looks at the long-term implications food deprivation will have on Palestinians. Plus, the Federal Reserve held rates amid historic dissent among the decision-makers, the uncertainty of predicting tsunamis, and Beyoncé broke another record. Today’s episode was hosted by Shumita Basu.

Across the country, Americans are in need of affordable housing. In California, the crisis is particularly acute. Could California's repeal of 70-year-old housing regulations spur much-needed development? Ben Metcalf, managing director of the Turner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley, joined The Excerpt to discuss the housing crisis in his state and beyond, and whether politicians are ready to face the challenge.

Why is it so expensive to build affordable housing in Chicago? One recent West Side development clocked in at $884,000 per unit. While the city says it's working to address red tape that drives up expenses, advocates say more must be done to rein in “crazy” costs associated with affordable housing.Host - Jon HansenReporters - Michael Liptrot and Ariel ParellaRead More Here Want to donate to our non-profit newsroom? CLICK HEREWho we areBlock Club Chicago is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit news organization dedicated to delivering reliable, relevant and nonpartisan coverage of Chicago's diverse neighborhoods. We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch five years ago, we've published more than 25,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 130,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

What if the key to long-term wealth wasn't found in skyscrapers or single-family homes—but in overlooked, misunderstood mobile home parks?Mobile home parks (MHPs) are often misunderstood, but for those looking to build real estate portfolios with strong cash flow, tenant stability, and legacy potential, MHPs are one of the most strategic investment plays available today. In this episode, Corwyn sits down with Arthur Varela and Bobby Wymbs from Matthews Real Estate to explore why mobile home parks are recession-resistant, how you can break into the space—even with limited capital—and how this asset class compares to more traditional investments like multifamily, triple-net leases, and self-storage.Together, they unpack not only the numbers and mechanics but also the mindset shifts required to see value where others don't.

The housing crisis could be addressed through better school career guidance. The unfounded stigma surrounding trades is hurting the supply of property. This was one of many topics of discussion in this week's episode of Broker Daily Uncut. Host Jack Campbell and co-hosts Phil Tarrant and Alex Whitlock dived into the rise of university students, with more young school leavers turning to further education, rather than picking up a trade. This is having severe consequences on the property market as supply struggles to keep up with demand. Education reform could help incentivise a career in the trade sector – a lucrative and extremely important path that has become overlooked.

California is facing a surprising twist in its real estate market—a massive pile-up of unsold homes.

From disposable products and low-quality fashion to the normalization of rude online behavior and trash politicians, it seems like we're spiraling into mediocrity.

Get Noticed! Send a text."We're not going to regret what we did. We're going to regret what we didn't do." That's Damion Lupo's life philosophy.What if the solution to America's critical housing shortage wasn't just building more homes, but completely reinventing how we build them? Damion Lupo and his team at FrameTec have raised over $100 million to commercialize the first major innovation in house framing since the nail gun was invented in 1952.At the heart of FrameTec's revolutionary approach is a patented "infinite board" system that transforms lumber processing. Unlike traditional construction that wastes materials and requires days of on-site work, their method identifies defects, finger-joints boards together, and produces precise, furniture-quality frames in just one day – up to four times faster than conventional methods. This isn't incremental improvement; it's exponential efficiency that could help close America's 10-million-unit housing gap.Damion's journey to FrameTec spans decades of entrepreneurial experience, including building over 70 companies and weathering devastating failures (like losing $25 million during the 2008 financial crisis). His hard-earned wisdom about team-building, raising capital through relationships rather than institutions, and focusing on what he calls the "foundational 15%" that gives businesses an 85% chance of success provides invaluable insights for entrepreneurs in any field.Whether you're fascinated by construction innovation, entrepreneurship, or simply curious about solutions to the housing crisis, this conversation offers both practical insights and philosophical depth about calculated risk-taking and leaving a positive legacy. Real Talk About MarketingAn Acxiom podcast where we discuss marketing made better, bringing you real...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifyAlliance Virtual OfficesVirtual Office Network Worldwide Lets You Work Flexibly, Save Money, And Grow Your Business.

With a shortage of more than 150,000 homes in Chicago, the city is seeking new solutions to provide quick and affordable homes to residents. Modular homes and accessory dwelling units, or ADUs, are seen as the most effective solution to this crisis, providing Chicagoans with cheaper access to housing. Reset learns more about the fight to legalize the construction of new ADUs and the overall fight for affordable housing in Chicago, with Bob Palmer, policy director at Housing Action Illinois; Alex Nitkin, government finance and accountability reporter at Illinois Answers Project; and Tim Swanson, founder of Inherent L3C.

The entire state of Oregon is facing a housing crisis, and the coast – where second homes and short-term rentals can skew the market – is no exception. “Think Out Loud” traveled to Lincoln County recently to talk about solutions.  We had a series of conversations about different approaches residents and organizations are taking to create more units, more affordability and more stability so that existing homeowners can stay in their homes. We started in Newport, where Oregon State University’s Hatfield Marine Science Center is putting the finishing touches on a new apartment complex. When it’s done, it will house visiting researchers and students. Bob Cowen recently retired as the director of the center. He took us on a tour of the building and talked about the need for workforce housing in Lincoln County.
