Texans for Reasonable Solutions brought several experts to testify to the Texas senate about badly needed solutions to the continued Texas housing crisis.
is a nonprofit organization focused on finding solutions to the state's housing shortage. The group advocates for removing barriers to housing development, finding ways to better use existing funding for housing and legislation that could help lower housing costs in Texas.
Some of the outdated laws, she said, have been on the books for decades and might no longer be applicable, if not harmful, to housing options in Texas. The way Nosek sees it, incentives are key to ensuring that housing permits stay ahead of potential population growth in the future. As an example, she points to Utah, where the state estimates"how many people are going to come in the coming years, and then they make sure that housing production is being approved on par with growth."
According to her estimates, a two-month time reduction can mean a savings of $4,000 per unit for a 135-unit apartment complex.
