Join us for a session with Alex Alsup, Chief Strategy Officer at Regrid, as he unpacks findings from Owned Away From Home, a new report revealing how widespread it is for U.S. homes to be owned by landlords who live outside the neighborhood—or even out of state. We’ll explore what this trend means for housing affordability, property maintenance, and neighborhood stability, and why understanding ownership data is essential for shaping local responses.
A Strong Towns technical expert will also introduce our latest Housing Toolkit, offering practical strategies communities can use to ensure homes are well cared for and accessible to those who live in them. From policies to help keep homes in the hands of people who live in them, to land use reforms that support incremental development, this session connects the dots between data and action.
This workshop is worth 1 AICP continuing education credit.
