  1. The Vital Work of Affordable Housing Preservation

    The Vital Work of Affordable Housing Preservation

    To address the shortage of affordable housing, Colorado must do more than build new units. That’s why this episode is focused on increased efforts to preserve the affordable housing that’s already standing. There are two kinds of affordable housing that the state is at risk of losing: housing that is built with government subsidies, and privately owned apartments that happen to have below market rents – often referred to as naturally occurring affordable housing.   When it comes to the privately owned buildings, Lori Rosendahl of Foothills Regional Housing Authority explains what it takes to keep those rents low and those tenants housed. Hint: she says it’s a lot of “dialing for dollars.” As for the subsidized housing, Jennie Rodgers, Rocky Mountain VP for Enterprise Community Partners, discusses the tools nonprofits and governments can take advantage of to preserve affordability for decades to come.  Resources from this episode:    Learn more about the Colorado Affordable Housing Preservation NetworkLearn more about Foothills Regional Housing’s work in Jefferson County Read more about how Enterprise Community Partners is helping local housing authorities and nonprofits be proactive about preservation work Check out the Colorado Affordable Housing Database Map   By accessing this podcast, I acknowledge that: views and opinions expressed in this podcast do not necessarily reflect those of Colorado Housing and Finance Authority (CHFA) and that this podcast is for informational purposes only and not legal, financial or other advice.

  2. Housing for Colorado's "Missing Middle"

    3月20日

    Housing for Colorado's "Missing Middle"

    More and more people in Colorado’s resort and rural towns fall into what’s called “the missing middle.” People who have good jobs, earning decent wages, but who are nonetheless struggling to afford housing where they live. They often earn too much to qualify for federal affordable rental housing programs, which limit eligibility to those whose incomes fall under a certain threshold. On the flip side, they are cost burdened by increasingly expensive and scarce housing.     Colorado is leading the charge to develop programs to serve this population, including CHFA’s Middle-income Access Program (MIAP) and the Middle-income Housing Tax Credit (MIHTC). In this episode, we hear from people working to take advantage of these resources to build and preserve middle-income housing across Colorado: Kimball Crangle, Colorado Market President for Gorman and Company, a national developer of affordable housing; Summit County Commissioner Tamara Pogue; and Steve Cordova, executive director of Las Animas Bent County Housing Authority and Total Concept, a housing and community development corporation serving rural Coloradans.

  3. Housing Built by and for Native Americans

    Housing Built by and for Native Americans

    In greater Denver, American Indians and Alaska Natives experience disparities in all forms of housing, according to a 2022 assessment. On average, they are four times more likely to experience homelessness and face high rates of rental housing discrimination. That, on top of centuries of forced migration and harmful federal policies, has led to immense housing inequities.     This is why groups like Native American Housing Circle are so essential. The Native-led grassroots coalition of provider organizations connects Denver’s incredibly diverse Native population with vital resources. It’s even part of an effort to build an affordable housing development for Native people in Denver, one of the first of its kind in metro Denver.    In this episode of The Buildout, we meet Lucille Echohawk, co-founder of the Native American Housing Circle, and learn about the collaborative efforts they’ve employed to combat housing instability among Native people in the metro.  Resources from this episode:  Learn more about Native American Housing Circle  Read the 2022 assessment on Denver Native American housing needs Watch RMPBS’ documentary "Urban Rez" Learn more about Brothers Redevelopment, Inc. and Colorado Housing Connects Listen to American Public Media’s documentary “Uprooted,” about urban relocation Watch “Virtual Moving History – Bernie Whitebear: A Modern Warrior”  By accessing this podcast, I acknowledge that: views and opinions expressed in this podcast do not necessarily reflect those of Colorado Housing and Finance Authority (CHFA) and that this podcast is for informational purposes only and not legal, financial or other advice.

  4. Closing the Gap: Increasing Black Homeownership

    2月20日

    Closing the Gap: Increasing Black Homeownership

    The Fair Housing Act, passed in 1968, outlawed housing discrimination. However, more than 50 years later, the homeownership rate between white and Black Americans remains nearly unchanged.  On top of that, communities that faced discriminatory policies in the past still feel the impacts today. According to research from the University of California, Berkeley, people living in historically redlined neighborhoods are highly vulnerable to air, water, and noise pollutants as well as other health problems. Discrimination is also not solely a thing of the past.  On this episode of The Buildout, we hear from housing professionals in Colorado who have been working to close the gap between white and Black homeownership: CHFA development specialist Greg Brown, Arthur Brown of Fairway Independent Mortgage Corporation and Kevin Marchman, co-founder and chairman of the National Organization of African Americans in Housing.   Resources from this episode:  Learn more about CHFA resources for first generation homebuyers Learn more about Own Your Tomorrow homebuyer programs  Learn more about Own Your Tomorrow events in Denver Learn more about Fairway Independent Mortgage Corporation Learn more about the National Organization of African Americans in Housing  By accessing this podcast, I acknowledge that: views and opinions expressed in this podcast do not necessarily reflect those of Colorado Housing and Finance Authority (CHFA) and that this podcast is for informational purposes only and not legal, financial or other advice.

  5. Homelessness Part II: Rural Communities Take Action

    Homelessness Part II: Rural Communities Take Action

    On our second episode focused on responses to homelessness, we hit the highway, away from Colorado’s densely populated cities and downtowns to rural communities in the southwestern part of the state. The affordable housing crisis is just as dire in cities like Durango or Cortez, but in many cases, they face greater challenges when it comes to increasing the supply of affordable housing. When it comes to reaching people, rural housing insecurity tends to be more hidden away; it’s not uncommon for people experiencing homelessness to couch surf, or to live in their cars. This can make it harder to assess the need, which can then make it more difficult to get the necessary resources.  But these challenges have only inspired creative, collaborative strategies. In this episode, we hear from a soup kitchen that is way more than just a soup kitchen, and an organization building relationships throughout the region to better serve those in the greatest need.

  6. Homelessness Part I: Responding to Urban Homelessness

    1月23日

    Homelessness Part I: Responding to Urban Homelessness

    Housing insecurity is on the rise in the U.S. According to the most recent data from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), more than 770,000 Americans were experiencing homelessness in January 2024—the largest number ever recorded since HUD began gathering data in 2007. The main factor driving housing instability in this country is the shortage of affordable housing.    Like everywhere else in the nation, Coloradans are feeling the effects of this housing shortage, but what that looks like depends on where in the state you stand. Because of how complex this crisis is, we’re devoting the next two episodes of The Buildout to solutions to tackling homelessness, focusing this first installment on Colorado’s urban areas. Along the Front Range, the affordable housing crisis tends to be a lot more visible, where large urban encampments have become the norm in recent years, sparking controversy and capturing headlines. We hear from guests who have been working to shift how cities approach homelessness, through the use of supportive housing, safe outdoor sites, and compassionate policies.

  7. Getting Innovative with Modular Housing in Colorado

    Getting Innovative with Modular Housing in Colorado

    The state’s Affordable Housing Task Force says that Colorado has a housing shortage of about 325,000 units. That deficit has contributed to rapidly rising housing costs over the last decade plus. And the demand only continues to grow. How can the state keep up with that demand, while also keeping up with the cost of building and the time it takes? Innovation. From 3D-printed units to panelized housing to shipping container construction and tiny homes, Colorado has established funding sources to encourage innovative building across the state. “It's not just, let's do more of the same. It's let's do more, but different,” says Gene Eidelman, co-founder of Azure Printed Homes. In this episode of The Buildout, we explore some of those innovations, including developers and builders who are using methods like modular construction to build housing faster and for less, without sacrificing quality and design.
