    Since 2000, the nation’s housing stock, both single and multi-family combined, has suffered from underbuilding to the tune of 5.5 million units. As a result, conservative estimates put the total undersupply of housing stock in the United States at 6.8 million units. The presentation will look at the severe housing shortage against the backdrop of population migration patterns and other economic drivers to better understand how we arrived at the housing crisis and what the outlook is for opportunistic investing in the future.

    • Fundamentally, what created the housing shortage?
    • What was the impact of Covid-19, supply chain challenges and will it continue?
    • What is the impact of interest rates and availability of credit on housing?
    • What other factors are impacting housing?
    • Is it possible to benefit from the housing crisis while helping solve the problem?

    Speakers: Ernest Johnson
