While the size of the housing shortfall in the U.S. is a matter of debate, the primary reason for the existing housing deficit is years of underbuilding and persistent supply-side challenges for the residential construction sector. The chief economist of the National Association of Home Builders, Robert Dietz, will provide an overview and estimates of the current limiting factors for housing supply. Those issues include building material supply-chain bottlenecks, an ongoing skilled labor shortage, and policy failures. He will also provide an overview of the economy and those factors affecting the housing market.

Join CURA and the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC) for this co-hosted event, November 15 at 12:00, to welcome CURA Alumni Robert Dietz on a webinar regarding the challenges that the U.S. is currently facing with the housing market from a construction sector's point of view.
