11:20 AM - 12:00 PM ET: What’s Being Done to Help Miami’s Affordable and Workforce Housing Crisis?

After the pandemic, Miami became one of the most unaffordable housing markets in the country.  As home prices and rents soared and capital poured in from every corner of the nation the creation and preservation of workforce and affordable housing communities is now more critical than ever.  In a high interest rate environment, escalating construction costs, runaway insurance prices, and a tightened lending environment, how are investors and developers overcoming these headwinds?  How will the Live Local Act impact the South Florida affordable housing strategy? Even as state and local governments have taken steps to encourage construction, many developers and investors still feel that affordable housing deals are prohibitive in the current macroeconomic environment. This panel explores what is being done to help with Miami’s affordable and workforce housing crisis.

Mixed-use residential development is thriving in urban and suburban markets that are undergoing significant population growth, but how do developers find the right blend of housing, retail, hospitality, office and amenities?
