Join Montara Ventures in exploring the economic forces shaping the region’s housing costs and the practical steps that could improve affordability.
Confirmed panelists include a representative from the City of San Jose Housing Department, along with a market-rate townhome developer and an affordable housing developer.

The discussion will focus on:
– Why housing costs have risen faster than incomes in Silicon Valley
– How zoning, land costs, construction costs, and financing affect housing prices
– The roles of both market-rate and subsidized housing in improving affordability
– Policy and market approaches that show evidence of reducing housing cost burdens
