The homes ranged in size from 372 to 758 square feet and were snapped up by residents who paid between $1,400 and $1,865 per month. Casata launched in 2020 and is now planning larger projects in other Texas cities such as Houston, San Marcos, Bastrop, and College Station. The Casata units were built in a factory. Casata designs and uses modular construction in the future, according to the CEO of Casata. Casata will still build them in a factory, but the homes will sit on foundations similar to traditional homes and meet the same building codes required for homes built on-site. The family office of the founder of WeWork is one of the investors that Casata has raised money from. Casata wants to have 30 to 40 communities in the next seven years, which would equal a billion dollars.

The OBY Cooperative is named after the debates between NIMBY and YIMBY. "Our backyard" is what OBY stands for. "It doesn't have to be yes or no, but just the understanding that collectively all of this land is ours," said the co-founder of OBY Cooperative.

The cooperative pairs homeowners who want to make more money from an accessory dwelling unit with tenants who use housing vouchers. It wants to sign 35-year agreements that will allow it to build, manage, and maintain 650 square feet of ADUs on residential properties for free. The homeowners can make a lot of money for the rental. There is a plan to eventually sell shares of the rental unit to other members of the community. OBY is working on the issue of sustainable living. The unit is powered by net- zero energy. The construction process is powered by the sun. The first tenant is expected to move soon. He said that the homeowner leaned on a legal background to help them draft equitable contracts. Steven Dietz believes he has a solution to the Los Angeles housing crisis. Dietz decided to tackle housing affordability through increasing attainable inventory after retiring from venture capital. The team began by transforming the garage. The construction process of ADUs was simplified by a California state law. According to Dietz, United has built 60 homes, with 300 more in the permitting process. The homes start at $195,900 and include demolition and design. Dietz told Insider that he could see a way to remove affordability from the equation in a few years. To pull down the price at the low end of the market, you need to build enough homes. Dietz says that units have been filled by people who have suffered through long commute times. The people who were driving over two hours to their jobs are just minutes away.
