HUD and Tiny Homes
We had a productive meeting with @DanaWade the Associate General Deputy Assistant Secretary for Housing at U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development( Sec Ben Carson), HUD's attorney and assistants. Our discussions and policies reviews will carry on as HUD had several legitimate concerns as to how to approach the Tiny Home community. A few questions -being how do they maintain their value and HUD's role without giving to much Gov't oversight? and what would that oversight look like?
This is the door we have been waiting to walk through and now we are here. HUD understand the affordable options of Housing Tiny/Micro homes provides for the community. Now how do will partner to make this a reality for not just homelessness, but for all forms of housing.
