Housing is one of Charlotte’s most pressing needs, yet also one of its most complex and misunderstood challenges.

In this episode, host Beth Silverman sits down with AJ Jackson of Leo Impact Capital and Andy Lucas of Beauxwright to unpack the facts behind the headlines.

Together, they define what we really mean when we talk about housing, from affordable to market rate, and explore the realities, myths, and opportunities shaping the housing conversation in the Charlotte region.

From zoning and policy to costs and community attitudes, this conversation dives into what’s driving the housing shortage and what it will take to create a more balanced and attainable future for everyone.
