Baker Tilly's podcast series specifically for professionals in the multifamily housing industry
On this episode of the BuzzHouse, hosts Don Bernards and Garrick Gibson are joined by Damon Duncan, principal of Clesia Ventures. Duncan shares his vision for housing agencies and the idea of reimagining their role. Through programs like Choice Neighborhoods, housing agencies are shifting to being catalysts for community planning and redevelopment and moving away from the traditional model of only administering housing programs. He also discusses challenges housing authorities face including culture shifts, competition for resources and more.
