Nearly 8 in 10 Houston residents believe owning a home is a good way to build wealth. Yet actual homeownership rates in the Houston region have been in decline since the early 2000s, with increasing costs cited as the main hindering factor. This webinar coincides with the release of the Kinder Institute's 2024 State of Housing report, which explores the implications of increasing homeownership costs in the region.
Panelists

The 2024 report and webinar are made possible with lead funding by Wells Fargo. Previous State of Housing reports have tracked various housing indicators and captured the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on the local housing market.
