Affordability challenges in Austin are hitting close to home—especially for our educators. A new report from Redfin reveals that teachers in the Austin metro area can afford just 59% of apartments and a staggering 1% of homes near schools. As the housing crisis deepens, it's crucial for policymakers to prioritize affordable housing solutions, particularly near schools. At the same time, we must address the long-standing underinvestment in teacher salaries. Our educators deserve both a livable wage and a place to call home. For more insights on this issue and potential solutions, check out the full story from our partners at KXAN News. #HousingAffordability #AustinRealEstate #EducationMatters #AffordableHousing #TeacherPay

It's inspiring to see fellow Texan and advocate, Eva Longoria, take a bold step towards addressing the housing affordability crisis in Texas by partnering on a workforce housing fund Turner Impact Capital.

We're eager to explore opportunities to collaborate in the future to create more affordable homes across Austin. Together, we can make a significant impact! #AffordableHousing #WorkforceHousing #TexasStrong
