Housing Challenges: Following President Trump’s housing remarks at the World Economic Forum, NAA’s Bob Pinnegar and NMHC President Sharon Wilson Geno issued the following statement:
“Our nation’s housing crisis – undoubtedly one of the defining issues of our time – cannot be solved without the involvement of every corner of the housing ecosystem, from rental housing to the for-sale market. For millions of Americans across our country, renting provides the flexibility and lifestyle needs that best support them. Further, the rental housing industry and our residents are a cornerstone of local communities, contributing $3.9 trillion to the U.S. economy annually and supporting 20 million jobs. Rental housing providers are key partners and are an essential part of the solution to relieve Americans' housing affordability challenges.”
