Video Description
Is the California Dream becoming out of reach? 🏠📉
The numbers are in, and they are eye-opening: only 18% of California households can afford a median-priced single-family home. In this video, Brad & Karen Mattonen discuss the urgent need for a shift in our state’s housing approach. From a 16% drop in permitting to new “VMT” rules that could add hundreds of thousands of dollars to the cost of a new home, we break down why 2026 must be a year for reform.
What we discuss in this update:
The Affordability Crisis: Why only 1 in 5 families can currently afford to buy.
The Supply Shortage: How falling permit numbers are tightening an already crowded market.
The VMT Impact: What new “Vehicle Miles Traveled” regulations mean for housing costs and your wallet.
The Path Forward: Why working with homebuilders and local leaders is essential to bringing inventory back.
At Homes in SD County, we don’t just track the market—we help you navigate it.
