HUD\u2019s \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hud.gov\/ourwayhome\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Our Way Home<\/a>\u201d initiative sets out to increase housing supply by helping local communities preserve and add affordable housing in their area for rentals and homeownership. This may include several initiatives, like advocating for zoning changes, holding roundtables to engage local and state leadership for solutions, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The National Association of REALTORS\u00ae welcomed HUD\u2019s announcement to combat the housing supply challenge. \u201cAs NAR has long recognized, a collaborative approach that involves local partners is critical to building strong, thriving, and inclusive communities,\u201d NAR President Leslie Rouda Smith said in a statement about HUD\u2019s new initiative. \u201c\u2018Our Way Home\u2019 promises to not only provide tools and resources necessary to address the supply shortages plaguing the country, but it will also improve vital HUD programs based on feedback gained through this effort.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NAR commissioned a report last year that found the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nar.realtor\/advocacy\/housing-is-critical-infrastructure\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">U.S. faces a housing shortfall of 5.5 million housing units<\/a>. The gap is so large, NAR says, that eliminating it will likely take more than a decade. The combination of record-high home prices and record-low housing inventories is making homeownership increasingly difficult to achieve, particularly for Americans of color and first-generation home buyers, NAR says in its recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nar.realtor\/newsroom\/record-high-prices-and-record-low-inventory-make-it-increasingly-difficult-to-achieve-homeownership-particularly-for-black-americans\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u201cDouble Trouble\u201d<\/a> report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis historic shortage of affordable housing requires a once-in-a-generation response,\u201d Rouda Smith says. NAR supports zoning reform, greater allocations to increase new-home construction, expanded financing options, and tax incentives that will increase investments to convert unused commercial spaces into residential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe shortage of affordable housing has been growing for decades\u2014but this is a solvable crisis,\u201d Marcia L. Fudge, HUD\u2019s secretary, said in the \u201cOur Way Home\u201d initiative announcement. \u201cAcross the country, we are seeing many communities ending exclusionary zoning, building affordable housing in communities that previously did not allow it. We are seeing communities use innovative building models and materials, and design homes that are sustainable and resilient. And we\u2019re seeing communities tackle homelessness by building permanent affordable housing with services. These are the types of community wins that we want to elevate with \u2018Our Way Home\u2019 and encourage others to follow.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nar.realtor\/newsroom\/nar-applauds-new-hud-program-prioritizing-housing-supply\" target=\"_blank\">National Association of REALTORS\u00ae<\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hud.gov\/ourwayhome\" target=\"_blank\">HUD.gov<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a9National Association of REALTORS\u00ae Reprinted with permission<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HUD Program Takes Aim at Housing Supply Crisis The Department of Housing and Urban Development announced a new program to help remedy the nation\u2019s housing supply shortage by boosting affordable housing.
