Community Land Trusts – A Route to Affordable Housing?


Details
Rising costs for land are a significant factor in the high cost of housing. Buying the house, and not the land underneath it, would reduce costs for homeowners and renters.
Community land trusts acquire and hold land for the benefit of the local community. The speaker evaluates the merits of using community land trusts to make housing cheaper and more accessible.
