Cost-effective housing is a challenge with no easy solutions—every action impacts stakeholders differently.
That’s why we think preserving existing housing at all costs is critical.
Let’s break it down:
1. Deferred Maintenance Accelerates Obsolescence
Holding back capital from aging housing stock might temporarily lower rents, but these properties risk becoming obsolete and disappearing from inventory. Replacement housing is far more expensive to build, driving up housing costs.
You can’t build new, used housing units.
2. Investing in Maintenance and Upgrades Raises Housing Costs
Infusing capital for deferred maintenance and preventive projects prolongs the lifespan of properties but often necessitates rent increases. While this helps maintain inventory, cost-effectiveness suffers.
3. Reliance on Government Programs is Part of the Solution
Federal and state programs offer solutions via tax incentives, gap funding, and financing, but these initiatives are often slow-moving, temporary, and costly.
The only viable solution is to preserve and invest in existing housing stock.
Yes, costs will rise over time, but the alternative—escalating replacement costs and shrinking inventory—is far worse.
