So so close to completing this ADU and delivering it to its new family. instagram.com/p/CdMzyZZDo8b/…
There are many creative ways to add to the affordable housing supply. Done right, a retained life estate is one example. Soup depends on creativity and generosity like this.sfchronicle.com/realestate/art…
Localities can do a lot to facilitate homebuilding--predictable paths to completion, common-sense rule interpretations, limits on endless process and interdepartmental coordination to name a few.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/new…
Here's one illustration of how important home ownership is to building wealth. Soup increases housing supply and builds wealth for existing homeowners. nytimes.com/2022/05/01/ups…
Want to receive #goodnews? Subscribe to the Soup weekly update! It takes one minute to read and we designed it to #inspire and connect you with our cause and work. buff.ly/3kA9kv4
One way to keep wealth and build diversity in a #community is to create more ownership. One of our highest priorities as an organization is to help families live where they work.
“We believe that #housing is a fundamental human need and right. Soup is a #nonprofit that utilizes #design and #technology to make the world a better place. @joshto, founder of Soup
There are so many questions when it comes to building additional #housing on your property. We can remove the guesswork so you can make an informed decision. If you are interested in what is possible we can help. Use our free housing assessment buff.ly/3GPW7Yc #adu
Every family has a #purpose in their #community. We’re here to make sure they have a place to call #home.
When you donate to Soup you are joining a #team of #innovators who believe designing a #beautiful future is actually possible.
We are ecstatic to announce that we have a new member on the #team! Meet Jonathan, our Soup Operations Coordinator. We look forward to the ideas and energy he will bring to Soup. Drop a comment of encouragement to Jonathan from the Soup community!
We believe that people and communities thrive when people live where they work, and we’re working to make that an option for everyone. #livewhereyouwork
Our friend *Sue nearly became houseless. We post a lot about homes, design, the housing crisis, the work we are doing, and our goals as an organization, but the real reason we exist and care about those things is: people. *Name changed to protect identity.
Who can use SB-9? Something about how anyone with a SFH can now build 4 units on their property. If you have 4000 sqft you can put 4 units. #sb9
About 120,000 houses have been created, few are affordable for the 160,000 individuals who are currently unhoused in the Bay Area. Soup is committed to designing solutions that increase housing density, generate income for homeowners and bolster the local economy.
We believe this is true. This is why we take great pride in proving that affordable housing can be beautiful. If you are interested in bringing beauty to your backyard we would love to help. Get started with a free assessment.
What is Senate Bill 9? It allows property owners to split a single-family lot into two lots. By allowing two units per parcel and permitting property owners to subdivide their lots, the law will increase housing density to as many as four units on a single-family plot.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who donated to Soup on Giving Tuesday! Together we raised over $66,000 in one day! #grateful #together #generosity #givingtuesday2021
A home is a beautiful thing. It is a place of safety and security. A place to venture out from and return to. Everyone deserves to have a place to call home. If you agree, we invite you to partner with us to provide access to affordable housing. buff.ly/31kdmjR
On this day of generosity, we are reminded of the 160,000+ reasons we are so passionate about creating affordable housing in the Bay Area. 160,000+ families and individuals in the Bay Area are without housing. buff.ly/3rk0WDy

We're a prop-tech startup based in Los Angeles that is helping agents and developers determine what they can or can't build in terms of housing (multifamily, ADU, 1-4 units).
PG&E has zero accountability and it's sickening.
Still one of the most powerful direct actions I’ve seen
October 2020, @KCTenants locking down the eviction court is a great example of the direct action needed now
If you think the @cityofpaloalto council is out of touch for appealing state housing targets, please support this petition. paloaltoforward.com/rhna_appeal_pe…
There’s nothing wrong with building products people want to use, but the power to design user behavior ought to come with a standard of ethical limitations. A good rule to follow? “Don’t do unto others what they would *not* want done to them.”
@mishachellam @kimmaicutler @hanlonbt Great question! I have the data scattered around my computer. Can crunch after work today and send over! It's... a lot of homes.
The pandemic exacerbated inequality. For that to change, the way we do things must change. 👉👉California NEEDS MORE HOUSING. It ALSO needs to ensure communities aren't displaced - and that the bulk of new housing is very affordable. Thread on #CAEquityStandards below:
(THREAD 1/3) CA's shortage of affordable + habitable housing drives homelessness, displacement, economic distress & health inequity. CA must create more housing AT THE SAME TIME it ensures new development has minimum #CAEquityStandards w/ these 5 Equitable Production Principles..
Okay, but even if they're a small part of the market, couldn't they be outbidding regular Americans when they do try and buy homes? Maybe, but there are reasons to be skeptical that they're directly competing with would-be normal homebuyers.

“California’s decades-long effort to keep low-income Black residents out of adequate housing continues to bear fruit: today, Black people make up 6.5 percent of the state’s overall population, but 40 percent of its homeless population.” @resnikoff: nytimes.com/2021/07/26/opi…
Low, fixed incomes, lack of #AffordableHousing, & lifelong discrimination & inequities are driving the surge in older adult #homelessness in California. Now more than ever, our older adult communities need a place to heal with dignity, with pathways to stable housing.
Thanks for stopping by @MyAbodu
We have been collaborating with phenomenal organizations that have been working towards creating an innovative housing solution. @MyAbodu has designed an ADU that can fit in your backyard, has maximized space and a seamless experience from blueprints to the delivery of ADU.
Why #California can’t build #affordablehousing. Finding out why 214 sites sit empty in the #BayArea when there should be construction helped @TheUnitNBC answer part of that question. Heading to Sacramento helped too. WATCH @nbcbayarea’s investigation: nbcbayarea.com/investigations…
"Because Bay Area cities have failed to produce enough supply to keep up with population increases, lower and middle-income residents now have to compete for housing with the super-wealthy, whose ability to outbid everyone else continually forces prices up"nytimes.com/2021/07/26/opi…
After working at California YIMBY for a year, I'm actually very grateful to see someone finally give the only honest justification for our current housing and land use laws.
@sdutOpinion Those of us sitting out here in the "sprawl" sitting on a half million dollars or more in equity certainly don't want to see any new housing built. Why? Because more housing drives he cost of homes down and shrinks our equity. Sorry if that sounds rude, but that's the way it is..
The response that zoning is a local issue obscures the national implications of these decisions. Torres is right to question the premise Fudge is falling back on here.
Systemic racism manifests itself powerfully in segregated housing. Are exclusionary zoning laws a violation of the Fair Housing Act? Should there be more enforcement of federal housing laws? 2/3
