In this segment, Mark Kohler advocates for actively building affordable rental housing rather than relying on existing deals, emphasizing that creating new value benefits renters and sidesteps federal indifference. He explains RealWealth’s market‑selection approach: they target locations with strong job growth and rising wages, ensuring residents can afford rents, and then acquire or construct small rental homes to fill the housing shortage.

Let's just build it. Let's build affordable rental housing. The feds don't care. I'm not stealing a deal away from someone else. I'm going out and creating new value.
We want to find an area where there's great need for housing and it's just not there for people. Number one most important thing we look for at RealWealth when we choose a market, and that is a market that has job growth. Where are they going to see some wage growth so that they can afford our rents? And then we buy little houses all around there or build them.
