Affordable housing is a hot mess, and Eric G is here to spill the tea on why that is. With nearly 1,900 affordable units sitting empty in the Portland metro area, we've got to ask: What's the city doing about it? Spoiler alert: Not much! Eric dives into this absurdity and how the local government might as well be running the DMV when it comes to getting people into homes. Oh, and if you thought your biggest worry was a leaky crawlspace, think again—how about a bear crashing your pad? Yeah, that's a thing now. Buckle up, folks, because we're tackling these wild updates and some recalls you definitely don't want to miss, all while trying not to lose our minds over the state of housing.Affordable housing is like the Holy Grail of urban living – everyone's hunting for it, but when you finally find it, you realize it's just a mirage. Eric G dives into this conundrum in our latest weekday update, where he serves up a heaping dose of sarcasm along with a side of reality check. It turns out that while cities are clamoring for more affordable housing, they're also sitting on a pile of vacant units that are gathering dust like that treadmill in the corner of your living room. With nearly 1,900 affordable housing units just chilling in the Portland metro area, Eric raises the question: do we really need more units or should we first figure out how to get people into the ones we already have? Spoiler alert: it's probably the latter. The government's slow-moving machinery seems to be failing at filling these units, and Eric's got the receipts to back it up. He paints a picture of the bureaucratic nightmare that is the application process, which makes you question if they're actually trying to help or just giving you the runaround. Tune in as Eric challenges local governments to get their act together and stop building more when they can't even fill what's already there – because, really, who needs a new shiny building when the ones we have are just sitting empty?Takeaways: In Portland, there are currently 1,900 vacant affordable housing units, highlighting a significant inefficiency in local housing policies. The government's slow process for getting people into affordable housing is reminiscent of waiting in line at the DMV, which is just a special kind of torture. Recent recalls include various baby products and Spartan mowers due to safety hazards, so check your gear before it checks you. Imagine discovering a bear living in your crawlspace—because why not add some wildlife drama to your home maintenance woes? As cities push for more affordable housing, we need to ask how effective their systems really are at filling those units, instead of just piling on more empty buildings. If you have a Walmart Ozark Trail camping stove, it might just decide to explode one day, so maybe stick to cold sandwiches instead.

In this episode, Elaine Parker and Eric Eggers break down the real causes behind America’s worsening housing crisis and debate the controversial push for 50-year mortgages as a solution. They explore the historical roots of the affordability problem, how environmental and zoning regulations restrict new housing supply, and why a growing number of Americans now view long-term debt and delayed homeownership as normal. The discussion also tackles the impact of immigration, regulatory barriers, and entrenched special interests on rising home prices. Elaine and Eric go deeper into the economic consequences of sky-high housing costs and highlight innovative policy ideas that could expand access to homeownership for working families. If you’re looking to understand the future of the housing market, the debate over mortgage reform, or how the U.S. can rebuild a path to the American Dream, this episode offers a clear and compelling breakdown.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Thomson, Planning Director at Savills, and Rosie Ashton, Design Manager at Verv-life, join Concilio's Siddo and Rochelle to discuss how co-living tackles the housing crisis and urban loneliness. In the latest episode of Concilio's Better Places podcast, Account Director Siddo Dwyer and Account Executive Rochelle Blakeman, sit down with Mark Thomson, Planning Director at Savills, and Rosie Ashton, Design Manager at Verv-life, to discuss the rise of co-living, what it is, who it's for, and whether it can help tackle two of London's biggest challenges: the housing crisis and urban loneliness. Key points discussed: ·      Co-living offers a professionally managed, community-focused alternative to HMOs, with private studios, all-inclusive bills, and flexible tenures.  ·      Thoughtful design and curated events help tackle urban loneliness, creating welcoming social spaces that genuinely encourage connection.  ·      New regulations have driven better-zoned, higher-quality studio layouts, while clustered amenities and strong local partnerships enhance resident experience.  ·      Co-living provides cost certainty and potential for discounted-market options for key workers, challenging misconceptions about quality and affordability.  ·      With clearer, more flexible policy, co-living could play a bigger role in London's housing mix and help ease pressure on traditional rental supply. For anyone interested in housing innovation, rental market reform, community-led placemaking, or how London can diversify supply in the face of mounting pressures, this episode offers insight into the new opportunities shaping the next generation of urban living.  Don't miss this conversation – listen now!

The passing of omnibus Bill 60, also known as the 'Fighting Delays, Building Faster Act' has caused a fury of backlash across the province of Ontario, including tenant and housing advocacy groups.The new bill, which was fast-tracked through the legislature, removes barriers to allow landlords to evict tenants if they're late on rent or if they're not paying their total. Many critics say this will worsen the homelessness crisis, especially during the upcoming winter months.However, Housing Minister Rob Flack says it's about restoring balance within the housing system, rejecting claims that this will put people out of housing. Instead, he says the bill will help expedite bills.Host Richard Southern speaks to Marc Davignon, Ontario ACORN Tenant Leader to talk about his experience getting kicked out of the Ontario legislature on Monday, and how he believes the new bill will affect the most vulnerable across the province.

In this episode, we sit down with Steven Tennant, Managing Director of Development at Ballymore. We discuss his unique career path from a paperboy in Yorkshire to leading major projects across Europe, his candid views on the London property market, and why the current challenges are more complex than the global financial crisis. Steven also shares insights into Ballymore's strategy, the critical issue of housing viability, and how the company is forging ahead with new partnerships and even establishing its own registered provider to deliver much-needed homes.

Southern Utah's future won't be decided by accident.We take you inside the most consequential choices shaping St. George right now—from Tech Ridge's emerging skyline and the plan to heal the Black Hill scar, to the four paradoxes that determine whether growth feels livable or overwhelming: housing, resources, wages, and heritage.What You'll Get in This Episode:Tech Ridge vision – skyline impacts, 60 acres of parks and trails, and smarter traffic with new southern accessBlack Hill scar fix – why this signals stewardship and design standards for the futureHousing paradox – supply constraints on only 11% developable land vs. policies that inflate demandResource limits – water scarcity, hillside ordinances, and view corridors that protect ridgesJobs and wages – moving from population-tied sectors to higher-pay career laddersHeritage and identity – trails, lights, festivals, and shared rituals that bind newcomers to long-timersBalance of power – courts vs. executive authority and Utah's redistricting tensionCommunity spotlight – Stuff The Bus toy drive at Station One on December 5thLive format plans – upcoming guests and a call for your inputThis is a candid, on-the-ground tour of how density, design, and economic mix can protect views, trails, and small-town character while raising incomes and keeping families here. From clustered mixed-use neighborhoods to the policies that make beauty non-negotiable, we lay out the roadmap to grow with intent.We also zoom out to the national headlines shaping the backdrop: UAP revelations, courts rebalancing executive power, and how these threads pull back to local stakes—trust in institutions, transparent tradeoffs, and the social fabric that keeps neighbors moving in the same direction.If you care about where St. George is headed over the next 20 years, this is your jumping-in point.Subscribe, share with a neighbor, and tell us in the comments: What heritage do you refuse to lose as Southern Utah grows?

This time around, Matt talks to Luca Gattoni-Celli about why it's so expensive to buy a house.In the 80s, people from all sorts of socioeconomic backgrounds were able to afford apartments and houses in places like New York City, San Francisco, or London. Now, on the other hand, even many wealthy people are getting priced out of the city. And indeed, the issue is no longer specific to urban areas: the problem of seemingly infinitely increasing real estate prices would appear to be creeping into the rest of the US, and into many other areas that were typically regarded as affordable in the recent past.Why is this the case? In this episode, Luca Gattoni-Celli discusses three factors that have artifically inflated housing prices far beyond the equilibrium point between supply and demand. One is zoning regulations, which impose limits on how maximum building size in a given area, how many people can live on a single property, and so forth. Another is permitting, which has the effect of introducing delays into the building process that make it financially infeasible and thus effectively block it from happening. The third is building codes, many of which were introduced for the purposes of making buildings safer to inhabit, but which have the perverse effect of preventing the construction of new buildings that would be safer than the old buildings that are currently in use.Our guest also makes the argument that zoning regulations have a sordid racist and classist past, which you can see, to an extent, in some of the original proposals that led to some of the original policies. More broadly, the claim is that population density is the way that low-income people band together to be able to afford real estate for which there is high demand, and that a push to block density effectively amounts to a push to keep lower-income people out.I found the discussion quite stimulating; I hope you enjoy it.Matt Teichman Hosted on Acast.

Hans and Brian break down the internet outrage over Trump's proposed 50-year mortgage—and why almost everyone is missing the point. The real issue? Homes aren't going up in value—they're going up in price. And it's not because of creative mortgage products. It's because we've been completely untethered from financial discipline, buying based on monthly payments instead of actual value. The average person moves or refinances every seven years anyway, so whether it's 15, 30, or 50 years doesn't fundamentally change the problem.Hans walks through the net present value discount formula to show why all three mortgage options are mathematically equivalent when you understand time value of money. The key isn't which mortgage term you choose—it's what you do with the cash flow difference and whether you understand human behavior well enough to avoid Parkinson's Law.Plus: why banks love principle-only payments (you're giving them 2055 dollars at full value today), the mortgage recast strategy your lender will never mention, and why the only real solution is controlling the entire banking function yourself so your kids and grandkids never have to step inside a traditional bank.Chapters:00:00 - Opening segment02:28 - Comparing total interest paid: 15 vs 30 vs 50 year mortgages 04:00 - The net present value discount formula explained 06:56 - Why understanding cash flow and equity matters 10:38 - The three variables that determine mortgage mechanics 13:00 - Parkinson's Law and the "compared to what" question 17:16 - Front-loading vs back-loading mortgage payments (policy loan example) 18:33 - The mortgage recast strategy banks won't tell you about 21:39 - Why future dollars are worth less than today's dollars 29:00 - The only two times you're secure in home ownership 30:22 - Taking control of the entire banking function for your family 34:07 - People don't buy homes, they buy monthly payments 37:37 - The already-broken system that 50-year mortgages expose 40:22 - Neil McSpadden's take: this isn't about affordability, it's about liquidity 42:00 - Comparing three different mortgage strategies with whole life policies 47:48 - The seen and the unseen: what are you doing with that capital? 49:00 - Why human behavior matters more than the math 51:00 - Nelson Nash and understanding the banking function firstKey Takeaways:Homes are going up in price, not value—untethered financial behavior and "what can I afford per month" thinking has driven housing costs through the roof for decadesAll mortgage terms (15, 30, 50 year) are mathematically equivalent when you understand net present value discount formula—what matters is what you do with the cash flow differenceWhen you make principle-only payments, you're giving banks full-value 2055 dollars today without any discount—they love this because you're making them whole on payments that should be worth a fraction of their face valueThe average homeowner moves or refinances every seven years, making the actual loan term almost irrelevant—you're not paying off your house anyway, even with a 15-year mortgageMost lenders won't tell you about mortgage recasting—make a lump sum payment (usually $10k minimum), pay a small fee, and they'll recalculate your loan with a lower monthly payment while keeping the same termThe real solution isn't optimizing which mortgage to choose—it's building a family banking system so you control the entire function: the repayment schedule, the equity, and the processGot Questions?

Cascade recently participated in U of O's Inspire Oregon summit on Rural Housing Policy, where policymakers, administrators, and leaders met to discuss policy and draft recommendations for Oregon's next legislative session. Discussions centered on a theme: that of navigating state regulations so rural citizens can have local control in Oregon's housing crisis. Since 1973 Oregon's Land Conservation and Development Act has restricted communities from meeting the housing and economic needs of their growing populations, in essence, favoring land preservation over housing and economic uses, and stifling Oregon's rural communities. This leaves local citizens without a voice in their own backyard. In a session on “Streamlining Development Process,” they discussed improving the process for what's known as “use by right” to encourage residential housing projects. However, local opponents and special interest groups continue to stunt and delay “use by right” policy through the Land Use Board of Appeals. They work to block projects and convolute the process for home builders.This year, the legislature tried to clarify “use by right,” amend the convoluted procedures, and limit opponents' ability to sue over permitted developments.Rural housing advocates will be asking legislators to adopt policies that favor residential development while respecting property rights. Oregon should decrease risk and regulatory cost for developers, simplify codes, and increase local control so communities can solve their local housing crises.Read the full commentary at CascadePolicy.org.

A Clare Airbnb host says she feels unfairly scapegoated for the wider housing crisis. Miltown Malbay mother-of-hour Lorna Cahill has spoken of her experience as a small-scale host in the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Enterprise, Tourism and Employment. The committee is currently reviewing the Short-Term Letting and Tourism Bill which was approved by the Government in April and requires hosts to register their property with Fáilte Ireland if they are letting it for 21 nights or less. Lorna says her property isn't suitable as a long-term residence.

Tara breaks down the ongoing immigration and visa crisis in the U.S., examining how both illegal immigration and H-1B visa programs are impacting American jobs, wages, and housing. From ICE operations in Florida to California's illegal CDL drivers, Tara exposes how corporate and political interests have diluted the workforce, driving up housing costs and displacing Americans. She also scrutinizes Trump's policies, including his visa fees and immigration enforcement, explaining what's working, what's not, and where political narratives distort the truth. Additionally, Tara addresses media manipulation, including the BBC's misrepresentation of Trump's speeches, and explains how these narratives affect public perception.

Tara breaks down the latest ICE operation in Florida, highlighting the dangers posed by criminal illegal immigrants and the challenges posed by activist judges releasing them. She then connects immigration policy to the skyrocketing U.S. housing crisis, showing how the influx of millions of legal and illegal immigrants has created a shortage of homes and driven up rent, pushing young Americans out of the market. Tara also examines proposed “solutions” like portable and 50-year mortgages and H-1B visa misuse, arguing that current policies dilute American jobs and threaten generational wealth. This episode is a deep dive into law, policy, and the economics of immigration, exposing how mismanagement affects safety, affordability, and the future of the American dream.

The Empire State Building took 110 days to build—today, changing a window would take two years. Alex Rampell (a16z) and Varun Krishna (Rocket CEO) expose how asset inflation turned housing from the American Dream into a wealth transfer machine where the median homebuyer age jumped from 30 to 38 in just fourteen years. While Silicon Valley burns billions on products people use daily but never pay for, Rocket quietly assembled a $10 billion profit engine and is now buying up the entire housing funnel—from Redfin's 50 million monthly searchers to one in six US mortgages—betting they can crack the code everyone else gave up on: turning a once-in-a-lifetime transaction into an everyday relationship. Resources:Follow Varun on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/varun-krishna-30019a22Follow Rocket on X: https://x.com/RocketOTDFollow Alex on X: https://x.com/arampell Stay Updated: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to like, subscribe, and share with your friends!Find a16z on X: https://x.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zListen to the a16z Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYXListen to the a16z Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711Follow our host: https://x.com/eriktorenbergPlease note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.
