Episode Synopsis

If we had an abundance of entry level units, there would be a lot of different opportunities,” says Charles Marohn. “A person who is in their first job, a person who’s just getting started with their family, a couple that has just gotten married, people should be able to move up when they’re ready.” In his book Escaping the Housing Trap, Marohn says because we can’t afford for housing prices to fall, one strategy is to look around your neighborhood and instigate a building boom of 600 sq. ft. houses. Among other things, in an interview with Brick by Brick, he talks about what a difference incremental developers can make.Interview guest: Engineer, Author and Strong Towns CEO Charles MarohnBrick by Brick Website Feedback Survey
