Course Description
Single family residential zoning in America is under attack! Cities across the U.S. are facing a shortage of affordable housing. As a result, housing advocates, builders, realtors, policy makers, and Legislators have formed an alliance to promote a solution. The alliance's solution is legislation to increase the density in cities across the country.
The legislative movement is commonly called Upzoning. And is popping up all over the country from Austin, TX to Washington State, as well as, Duluth, Minnesota & St. Paul, MN to name a few. These laws dramatically reduce the number of parcels that are available for only single-family residential use. Moreover Upzoning legislation has a huge effect on how Appraisers do their jobs!
Who Should Enroll
