Housing expansion and real estate development have been central factors in the revival of the District’s fortunes, and private and public sector officials have worked cooperatively to create a robust climate for growth while maintaining the District’s commitment to affordable housing.
 
The Economic Intelligence Roundtables focused on Real Estate and Housing bring together leaders of the region’s academic, civic, government and corporate sectors to discuss real estate ownership, development and lending. The Roundtable tackles key regional real estate and housing policy issues—including growing the District’s stock of affordable housing—that influence the District’s economy and resiliency.
 
With DC-specific data on home sales and inventory, rent levels and inventories, housing tenure and affordability, each Roundtable showcases a timely topic and produces a series of concepts and recommendations on public policies and private sector practices—with the goal of moving the issue from thought to action.
