Make it easier to build affordable housing

Adam Smith supports federal measures to speed construction of affordable housing, especially near transit. His proposals include reducing construction costs and red tape, coordinating local, state, and federal partners, and using incentives for cities and counties to build more housing near jobs and transit. He also supports requiring private-equity firms to divest single-family homes and restricting future bulk purchases, with the stated goal of limiting large investors’ effects on rents and helping first-time buyers.
