At the federal level, the National Association of Realtors is pushing for expanded vocational training in construction fields, revised condo defect laws, & more community bank lending for lot development.  Not only would these steps relieve the housing shortage, would keep the economic growth humming at 4% or more.  NOW EVERYONE WINS!!

Consider advocating for more new construction in your community.  Goals:  streamling the housing permit process;  reducing impact fees on new homes;  reducing minimum lot sizes;  expediting local environmental reviews;  promoting the repurposing of outdated commercial buildings into residential units; & encouraging use of prefab, modular housing & accessory dwelling units.  MORE TO COME
