Over time, property is almost guaranteed to go up in value. That’s a problem if you have a limited income and want to buy a house.

Interview guests: Civil rights activist who helped start the first US CLT Shirley Sherrod, Executive Director Atlanta Land Trust Amanda Rhein, Executive Director Yellow Springs Home, Inc. Emily Seibel and Renting Partnerships founder Margery Spinney.
