  <title>2477: Builder Profit Margins Hit 26-Year Lows and Solving the American Housing Crisis</title>
  <description>Property investors should prioritize seizing growth opportunities and actively avoid the opportunity costs of letting their capital remain idle. Current market conditions feature high mortgage rates and challenging housing affordability, yet human nature dictates that fear of loss remains a powerful motivator for market participation. Due to these economic hurdles, tenant retention has surged significantly as renters remain in place longer rather than attempting to purchase homes. Consequently, real estate investors can capitalize on compressed builder margins and various market incentives by consulting with professionals to optimize their portfolios. America is currently facing a severe housing affordability and shortage crisis, largely driven by restrictive government regulations and outdated zoning laws established during the progressive era.&amp;amp;nbsp;David Rand, the founding president and CEO of the Land Liberty Movement, explains that these pervasive barriers—including minimum lot sizes, excessive setback requirements, and mandatory double staircases—severely limit property rights and inflate construction costs. To combat these challenges, organizations like his advocate for state-level policy reforms that dismantle central planning and return decision-making power directly to property owners and developers. By easing these burdensome restrictions and embracing natural market prices, communities can foster innovative housing solutions like high-quality manufactured homes and mixed-use walkable neighborhoods. Ultimately, building a broad ideological consensus and reempowering individuals are essential steps to successfully restoring housing accessibility and the American dream for future generations. #EmpoweredInvestor #RealEstateInvesting #ROI #IncomeProperty #OpportunityCost #HousingMarket #MortgageRates #TenantRetention #BuildToRent #KBHomes #PropertyManagement #LandLiberty #JasonHartman #RealEstateOpportunities https://propertytracker.com/&amp;amp;nbsp; https://empoweredinvestormarketplace.com/app/search https://empoweredinvestor.com/wednesday&amp;amp;nbsp; https://empoweredinvestorpro.com&amp;amp;nbsp; Contact our Investment Counselors today! &amp;amp;nbsp; Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial 0:00 Say YES, man 3:32 Opportunity costs 6:27&amp;amp;nbsp; Multi-dimensional feature and renters 11:39 KB Homes David Rand Interview 14:19 Introducing David 16:59 property rights and manufactured housing 22:26 A very complex problem 24:06 Building mix-use communiites 28:08 Action plan &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp;_______________________________________________________________ &amp;amp;nbsp; Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM &amp;amp;amp; LINKEDIN  Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI  Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/  Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit:&amp;amp;nbsp;https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class: &amp;amp;nbsp;Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else:&amp;amp;nbsp;http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes &amp;amp;amp; Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course:&amp;amp;nbsp;https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing:  https://www.PandemicInvesting.com </description>
