More homes start with making it easier to build them. 🏡
Rep. Greg Landsman @RepGregLandsman joined Colin Allen @ColinAllenAPOA at Engage to discuss how restrictive land-use and zoning policies can limit housing supply and drive up costs, and why communities need stronger incentives to build new homes, improve existing properties, and bring more housing back to the market.
Expanding supply is a key part of expanding opportunity‼️

40 is too late for the average first-time homebuyer.
Buying earlier means more time to build equity, benefit from appreciation and create long-term wealth. - said @ColinAllenAPOA
We need to bring that age down and make homeownership more accessible. 🏡 #homeownership

Before Wall Street meant finance or K Street meant politics, Main Street was the heart of America. As the nation celebrated its 250th this summer, @ColinAllenAPOA looks at how Main Street shaped the American Dream and where it goes next: colinallendc.substack.com/p/…

Homeownership is one of the most powerful tools for building generational wealth, strengthening communities, and creating opportunity for future generations. That’s why the Alliance took the Unlocking Opportunity Tour to Michigan, where the Black-white homeownership gap is 31%. nar.realtor/news/real-estate…

Shannon McGahn of the National Association of REALTORS® explains how outdated capital gains limits are keeping homes off the market and making it harder for older homeowners to downsize.
Modernizing the exemption could unlock more housing inventory, support local economies, and create new opportunities for homebuyers.

On populism and the whipsaw: “It’s not I’m mad with the Republicans or I’m mad with the Democrats. It’s like I am unhappy and I am not secure in my future.” Allen thinks Washington is underestimating how long this dynamic runs.
Homeownership is not a partisan issue, let's put more homes on the market!
The U.S. is 4 to 6 million homes short. Cause: historic underbuilding since the financial crisis. Solution: build more, faster, in places people want to live. @ColinAllenAPOA @ownersalliance: “This is the American dream. This is America. Build, baby, build.”
New on @decidersshow, check it out!
