Jay Parsons challenges the notion that affordable housing must target renters at 30 percent of area median income (AMI) to be effective.
He highlights research suggesting that properties using the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program at 60 percent AMI can also serve low-income renters, as actual rents do not always reach the program's maximum allowable levels.
Parsons has previously noted that Brin sold his stake in New York City rent stabilized apartments for six cents on the dollar, marking a significant loss in that transaction. He has also reported that private equity involvement has resulted in millions more U.S. housing units than would otherwise exist across the market. These observations provide added context to Parsons’ recent focus on affordable housing metrics.
