    Pass a state law preventing institutional investors from buying homes that were supposed to be for middle class people. I see it first hand in my neighbor, they bought the home for less than $400K, they just cleaned and with few touch ups, they sold it for over $500K to another buyer. It is ridiculous that they are ripping of both the seller of that home and the new buyer.

    It's not supply and demand, it's that no one wants to live in dangerous neighborhoods, if Detroit neighborhoods were safe many would just go there. Drugs, gangs and crime in this country are finally taking their final tole, and that's not just among the poor class but the rich as well.
    Really think for a moment, if all of those hoods were completely crime free, there would be plenty of housing for everyone.

    I guess the question missing is why do we have such a glaring need for Low-Income housing.
    Has their been a demographic shift where people are moving back into cities which drives up the price of housing. Also, help people develop job skills and or to educate themselves so they don’t stay low-income for life.

  • @JoeSmith-jd5zg

    No. Affordable housing means a person working a median-wage job can buy a house that is 3-4 times her/his annual income, just like it was when real market forces were in play decades ago. Not "we're only going to give the poor people $ so they can spend like an average person"-meanwhile that enables rent and prices to be continually jacked up artificially. Increase supply, stop letting zoning laws and NIMBY weenies stand in the way of building, stop allowing increasingly longer term mortgages so the banks get fatter, dumber, and happier at the expense of everyone else, and get rid of the damn national association of realtors. The median-wage worker should not have to pay 8-10 times annual income to afford housing. Giving free money to artificially support high prices makes things worse-fix the real problem with the previous sentence. All this crap does is sort of fixes the poorest people-prices jack, and now you have a new higher-earning segment that is house poor or overburdened on rent. Give those folks money and next is the next higher earners, etc. Do REAL affordable housing, not a government scam.
