  • To say there's a lack of affordable housing in Maine would be an understatement. The latest numbers from the Maine Association of Realtors are glaring.
    The median sale price for a home in the state is $337,500. That's up nearly four percent from March of 2022.
    To top it off, the state continues to see lower than normal inventory.
    Meanwhile, according to MaineHousing, based on a report from HUD in September 2022, fair market for a two-bedroom apartment in Maine ranges from $767 a month to $1,637 a month.
    The alarming stat is the vacancy rate in Maine. It's at 2.9% percent. That's the second lowest in the country.
    The housing crisis has the state, residents, and builders thinking outside the box when it comes to alternatives that includes the emergence of more tiny homes.

    I wish more jurisdictions would allow them though, that and ADUs, but neither mine nor a family's members does. :(
