Episode 54 "Creating Affordable Housing: Rafael Perez Talks Housing Reform"

🎙️In this episode of the What's Next Podcast, we are thrilled to welcome Rafael Perez, a passionate advocate for equitable outcomes in the housing space. As a prominent leader within the Party, Rafael has been at the forefront of policy changes that are making a real difference for communities across California.

Rafael has successfully passed state policies aimed at creating more affordable homeownership options for individuals priced out of the market. His innovative approach focuses on leveraging existing infrastructure to smartly and efficiently expand housing opportunities.

One of Rafael's notable achievements includes his involvement in the introduction of AB1033 in California. This groundbreaking legislation initially stipulated that ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units) could not be sold separately from the main property except by non-profits. However, AB1033 brought a pivotal change by removing the state-level restriction, thus empowering local governments to decide whether homeowners can sell ADUs separately as condos.

Join us as Rafael shares his insights, experiences, and the journey behind these transformative housing policies. Whether you're interested in housing equity, policy-making, or simply curious about what's next in the world of real estate, this episode is a must-watch!🎙️
