For years, building Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) in Massachusetts meant red tape. On Feb 2, 2025, the Affordable Homes Act cut through it, making ADUs easy statewide. This shift isn’t just about housing policy—it’s about real people and real families. More adults than ever are living with their parents, and many families need space to care for children with disabilities or aging loved ones. We all know someone in this situation. ADUs create flexible, affordable options that allow families to stay close while maintaining independence. It’s also a win-win for homeowners and the housing market—helping people generate rental income, support multigenerational living, and increase property value, while also expanding housing supply without massive new developments. Housing solutions don’t always have to mean large-scale construction; sometimes, the best answers are already in our backyards. This is exactly why I joined Bequall. Housing shouldn’t be this hard to scale. Homeowners and developers alike benefit when we remove unnecessary complexity and create smart, system-based solutions that accelerate housing production. Bequall is focused on making that possible—helping homeowners and developers streamline zoning, permitting, and capital flow to build modular homes at scale. The Affordable Homes Act is a big step forward, but there’s still work to do. I’m excited to be part of a team that’s solving these challenges—and I’d love to hear your thoughts. Would you consider building an ADU? Let’s discuss. ?? #AffordableHousing #ADUs #Homeowners #MultigenerationalLiving #MassachusettsHousing #ModularHousing #SustainableLiving

Is Exclusionary Zoning Driving America's Housing Shortage? Exclusionary zoning isn't merely a local concern—it's a constitutional issue affecting housing availability across the nation. A broad alliance of economists and land-use specialists agrees these zoning laws significantly contribute to housing shortages, particularly in cities. Key Points: Zoning and Policy Reforms: There is an urgent call for zoning changes to promote inclusivity and address housing deficits. Market Dynamics: As the demand for affordable housing grows, restrictive practices limit choices and inflate prices. Urban Density Solutions: Innovative urban planning can optimize space and offer diverse housing options.
