The average lot cost in Waukesha County Wisconsin is over $207,000.
The average lot cost in Wichita Kansas is $50,000!
Why the huge disparity?
It's not the raw land cost.
It's how the development process is handled.
I learned this information talking with local builder and developer and current chairman of the National Association of Home Builders, Carl Harris.
In this episode, he shares the unique public and private partnerships that are created that actually promote home building developments and radically drive down costs.
Carl and David compare and contrast how development is done in their markets and why there is such a disparity in lot prices.
Everyone in development, every public official, everyone concerned about housing should listen to this episode and share it with their elected officials.
If some of these measures were implemented the cost of housing would go down dramatically and we could achieve a better level of housing affordability.

"They don't make things like they used to"
Ok I sound like old man talking. . .
But it's true. Especially appliances.
There has been a huge uptick in repair requests for appliances and it has customers irate.
Especially newer appliances manufactured in the last 5 years.
Many repairmen are telling the customers it's better to just get another one rather than repair it.
The days of buying a refrigerator and having it last for 30 years are over.
Are we living in the age of disposable appliances?

One of the most undervalued aspects of a community is it's safety. If residents do not feel safe and protected in their community they will not spend money there, they won't leave their homes and eventually will leave the community.
Unsafe communities lose businesses, have declining property values, and gain a stigma in the area that is hard to shake.
After my recent episode of Big Brother is Watching You, I was given the opportunity to tour our local police department and learn not only about the cameras systems I questioned but also see first hand how they protect us.
I'll have to admit I was blown away by what our local police can do. I would encourage everyone to take a tour of their police department and see how they protect your community.
Find out what I learned about police and public safety.

New AI powered cameras are popping up all over your neighborhoods.
You might have noticed these near your homes, offices, or on main roadways.
I discovered this right in front of my business office.
They typically have a black square solar panel above with a black camera below and are mounted 8'-10' high on a pole or light facing a roadway.
They are called Flock Cameras and they capture you every time you drive by.
They grab your license plate, vehicle type, color, and can even notice small differences like bumper stickers.
While used by the police to find suspicious vehicles, if this data is put in the wrong hands it can be a tool of mass surveillance.
We discuss these cameras in your communities and some of the concerns we have with them.

The National Association of Realtors recently lost an Antitrust ruling on commissions that could cost 1.8 billion.
The ruling states large brokerage firms conspired to artificially inflate the commission.
Typically the seller pays the commission to a listing firm and the fee is parsed out between the listing broker and the selling broker.
The fallout could mean in the future that a buyer would pay an agent directly to hire someone to help them buy a property and the seller would pay the listing firm only.
We explain why there will be an appeal and give our thoughts on this ruling and share additional information on this developing story.

We dive into why people are doing it, what the ramifications are and the reasons behind it all.
If you are potentially in the market to buy a home you definitely need to be aware of the rising costs of insurance and how it can impact your purchase.
Custom home building is growing in popularity but there are quite a few differences in the process, timing, and cost.

More buyers are sitting out of the housing market. Why?
Prices continue to rise, and there is tons of equity to gain.
We discuss a recent Bloomberg and New York Times article that shares some examples.
Why is this happening and what should you watch out for?
Tune in to learn more.
We explore the differences in home building 30 years ago vs today.
Believe it or not a lot has changed. From the floor plans to the features todays homes look a lot different.
Find out what are some of the key differences and how much building has evolved.
The Department of Energy just came out with a new ruling going after another gas appliance.
First it was your gas stove.
Now it's your gas water heater.
They are also looking to target gas backup generators.
How soon until they do your furnace?
Can our grid handle it?
We have some interesting stats and thoughts on this so make sure to tune in.
One of the biggest issues in housing is providing homes for the workforce. Especially vital workers such as police, fire fighters, nurses, and teachers. Unfortunately, many of these workers wages do not allow them to afford even a basic home near where they work.
This makes it especially hard to recruit these workers as they can't afford to live near their jobs.
Workforce housing has many challenges over the years as it first is not clearly defined. Secondly it requires 3 levels of government to work together, and last private industry has to do it's share as well.
Whenever you try to get that many entities working together it's going to be a challenge, but a worthy one.
There is a large discrepancy in housing prices and the gap is wide between new and existing homes. There are many reasons for it.
We cite a recent example of a transaction we are involved in and how it really illustrates many factors into the price gap.
There is a lot of work that can be done to bridge that gap and if everyone did their part it could get a lot closer.
It would help solve the housing crisis on hand and help many first time buyers have more choices and opportunites.
Electrification is really gaining a lot of steam in all industries. One of the big questions many people are asking is, "Is solar worth it?". We look at current costs of solar power installation on typical homes, as well current federal tax incentives and determine the actual payback time so you can make an informed decision.

How the Silver Tsunami will affect housing?
The housing market much like other industries is going to be smacked by a generational wave of people moving out that will have a massive ripple effect on the industry as well as many others.
It’s called the Silver Tsunami.
What is it?
Well it’s the baby boomers hitting the retirement age and also passing away.
Why does it matter?
There are 76.4 million boomers in the United States.
33.9% of people over the age of 60 own homes.
In the next 20 years it is expected that 27.4% of all homes hitting the market will be from this group.
It is expected that the silver tsunami will shed 20 million homes by the year 2030.
We discuss the reason why many of these homes should have hit the market sooner but didn’t.
Could this be a much needed boost in inventory to the millennial and gen-z buyers?

We've all heard the security issues with TikTok.
We can all agree that something needs to be done about it.
The government just drafted some legislation call the #restrictact to empower themselves to shut down these platforms.
But that is not all that is in this bill.
There are many ramifications to this legislation that affect how much control you are giving to a few people, as well as your personal data and privacy.
If you have #smartdevices or use a #vpnservice or you just care about your personal privacy and freedom of speech you should definitely pay attention.

Half the County cannot afford a $250,000 home. That is according to a recent NAHB Study on the Housing Pyramid. In this study they analyze different price points of homes and show how much of the country can afford each level. It's a pretty shocking set of data. If ever there was a good argument for more focus on housing affordability this is it. You are not going to want to miss this episode.

First impressions are everything. Even in homes. While much of the focus is on the outside, one of them most important areas to make a great first impression with visitors is the staircase.
A well placed, well thought out staircase can transform the entire feel of a home when you enter.
Curves, open treads, unique handrails, combinations of glass, metal, and wood can all come together for an amazing look.
This year at the International Builders Show (IBS) I saw a few amazing and inspiring staircases that can certainly take your home to the next level.

One change that can drastically help promote more housing affordability is reducing overall lot size. The good news? In many parts of the country it is on the decline. Others, not so much.
Many municipalities have minimum lot sizes and that can make housing unaffordable or unattainable in many areas. This policy must be reconsidered if we want to help millennial home buyers have a chance at new homes.

You've probably heard the rhetoric around climate change recently. Anytime there is an unusual weather pattern or event you can pretty much bet on activist groups and pundits coming out and asking for more legislation for climate change. Sorry to say this to you but throwing money and increasing the size of government is not going to affect climate change.
We debunk several of the main climate change arguments with science. We also share how this fear tactic is being used to benefit certain people and companies, which is the true motivation behind much of this hysteria.
While we do believe in using sustainable materials, using energy efficient construction in homes, and protecting our natural resources, legislating for this only drives up costs of homes and does very little to solve the real problems.

I recently posted a photo that went viral.
There have been a lot of conversations in the past few months about lumber prices. Tons of stats were being thrown out but nothing was resonating with people.
Then, I had an idea...
I called my lumber supplier and asked him to help out.
In the picture, I showed how much $1000 of lumber looked like in September of 2020 vs. May of 2021.
It went completely viral! 700+ shares of Facebook over 100,000 views, 7,300 retweets on Twitter, 7000 views on LinkedIn, and even shared by comedian Rob Schneider.
People needed to see a visual. People need to see things in terms they can understand.
Here are the numbers:
September 2020 $1000 of lumber = 100 2x4's and 33 sheets of OSB
May 2020 $1000 of lumber = 30 2x4's and 10 sheets of OSB
So the saying goes a picture is worth 1000 words, a viral picture is worth hundreds of thousand views.
This picture is making a difference! It has opened up new conversations with our elected officials and it has given a visual to people to tell a story.
If you want to help use the hashtag #fixlumber and post or share the picture. Here are the links:

After 9/11 people were scared, and reduced their travel, and instead invested more in their homes. They got larger, they added more creature comforts like theater rooms, out door living areas and more.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Andy Weins, President of Green Up Solutions, an eco-friendly junk removal company. Andy shares his unique philosophy of how to properly dispose of things, and how he and his company are able to assist people with de-junking their home and finding use for every day items in their homes.
Many of the items they remove can still be re-used or repurposed instead of ending up in a landfill. His organization also has a unique employment structure as most of the employees are veterans. This creates a unique structure at the organization and also provides comfort to potential customers knowing that this is company that will show up on time, and treat you and your home with respect.
