In our latest whitepaper, we confront one of the most pressing issues facing communities nationwide: housing affordability. As the backbone of vibrant neighborhoods, the availability of affordable housing directly influences population growth, job opportunities, and cultural diversity. However, skyrocketing housing prices threaten to destabilize these foundations, prompting local leaders to seek effective solutions.
We explore the root causes behind the rising cost of housing before shifting our focus toward the development and permitting process. This critical pathway, laden with inefficiencies and delays, acts as a barrier to increasing housing supply.
Our recommendation for governments looking to solve housing crises in their communities is the Accela Civic Platform. With its array of features, the platform empowers local leaders to expedite the development process and deliver more housing units to the market.
