Yesterday was an action-packed day at the National Housing Conference Solutions for Affordable Housing! The event featured fantastic panels, insightful policy discussions, and the opportunity to connect with key federal advocacy partners like the NCST (National Community Stabilization Trust) and National Association of Affordable Housing Lenders (NAAHL) As we look ahead and anticipate how housing policy might evolve under the Trump Administration and the incoming Congress next year, one thing is clear: increasing housing supply and lowering costs is a bipartisan priority across both rural and urban areas. Modernizing federal programs and increasing public private partnerships (LIHTC expansion and Neighborhood Homes Investment Act) will be key to meeting this critical need.
