Why America Has No Affordable Homes Left

The housing market narrative is broken. For years, we’ve been told America has a “housing shortage.” But what if the real issue isn’t a shortage… What if it’s a mismatch? In this video, I break down why affordable housing is becoming one of the biggest economic and political issues in America, why Realtors are literally begging city councils for more entry-level inventory, and why builders continue to focus on mid-level luxury homes while first-time buyers get priced out. We’ll cover: • Why there is NOT a true housing shortage in many markets • The affordability crisis facing first-time homebuyers • Why builders aren’t building entry-level homes • How inventory is stacking up in the wrong price points • The economic impact of high mortgage rates and rising costs • Why Florida and other boom states may be facing oversupply in certain segments • What this means for buyers, sellers, real estate agents, and investors The market is shifting. The question is: are you adapting? If you’re a buyer, seller, investor, or Realtor trying to understand where the housing market is headed next, this breakdown will help you think differently.
