The U.S. housing market is slowing in response to rapidly rising home prices and a historic mortgage rate shock. The once red-hot market has slowed enough that some power has returned to prospective home shoppers, but there’s still a lingering issue: not enough inventory. The structural supply and demand imbalance is making it hard for people to get on the homeownership ladder to build wealth and put down roots. During this session, experts will discuss what can be done to better align home prices to incomes and what kinds of forward thinking and innovative approaches are being implemented across the country to support more attainable housing.
