Sean shares his insights on the key challenges contributing to the crisis, including inefficiencies in the construction industry and restrictive zoning laws. He emphasizes the urgent need for innovative solutions like offsite construction, prefab homes, and zoning reform to address the growing demand for affordable housing. With prefab homes emerging as a viable alternative, this discussion explores how these cost-effective, high-quality homes could help solve the U.S. housing shortage.
They also discuss the importance of land use reform, the aging construction labor force, and how government incentives could empower smaller developers to compete with larger firms. As Sean explains, the future of real estate will rely on new construction methods that reduce costs and speed up project timelines, providing a much-needed housing supply.
