About Us
"We support market-based policy solutions that give Americans access to affordable,
high quality housing."
The Coalition for Competitive Housing Markets was established to educate policy stakeholders about the benefits of maintaining competitive housing markets for homeowners, renters, and the economy.
We support market-based policy solutions that give Americans access to affordable, high-quality housing. We believe that robust competition in housing leads to greater affordability, innovation, and choice for consumers. We advocate policies that reduce barriers to entry, increase transparency, and help create a healthy housing market.
Housing is the foundation of the American Dream. And, businesses around the country support this industry all competing to bring the American Dream to more households. This includes 100,000 real estate brokerages, 16,000 title companies, and 500,000 general contractors and home builders. Without government interference these companies will compete to provide lower costs, better products, and innovations that we can’t yet imagine.
