To investors,
Housing affordability in the United States has become a national crisis.
It is harder to own a home today than it has been in the last 40 years. Approximately 50% of American citizens are 40 years old or younger, so this is the worst housing affordability period in their lifetime thus far.
When a national crisis arises, it is imperative that entrepreneurs spring into action. They can use the private market and economic forces to create meaningful change. It only takes a few courageous individuals with a good plan and an appetite for risk to build something that can have national impact.
I deeply believe this.
That is why we are announcing a brand new company today — ResiClub.
My team and I have partnered with the number one residential real estate reporter in the country, Lance Lambert, to create a data-driven media outlet exclusively focused on this market.
Lance, formerly at FORTUNE, is widely recognized for his incredible work on housing inventory, residential demand, geographic trends, interest rate changes, and mortgage implications. He has been covering this market for years and brings a level of professional journalism that is desperately needed to tackle a problem that affects millions of Americans.
But Lance is not simply covering the market — he is betting his livelihood on this.
Lance quit his job at FORTUNE recently to go all-in on this opportunity. He has burned the boats and there is no turning back. This either works or Lance is in a bad spot.
That is the exact type of entrepreneur that I like to partner with — one who bets on himself.
With his expertise in the housing market, and our expertise in operations, revenue, and growth, we believe that together we can increase awareness about the lack of housing affordability very quickly.
Once we raise awareness, we plan to empower market participants with proprietary data products. Lastly, if we are fortunate enough to find success in those two avenues, we may even look to tackle real-world solutions through the building of affordable housing nationally.
Before we get there though, we have to nail the media platform.
If you are interested in staying on top of the housing market, interest rates, mortgage trends, or inventory impacts, I ask that you subscribe to Lance Lambert’s ResiClub today.
The first piece of content will go out later today for subscribers. This will be high-quality information and analysis that you can not find anywhere else.
If you aren’t into the housing market, but just want to back a founder who is betting his career on creating something that could solve a problem for many people, you should consider subscribing too.
I am excited to work with Lance on this new company. He is the best in the world at what he does. It is going to be fun to turn it into a sustainable business that gives millions of people the information they need to make informed decisions. You can read the full press release below.
I hope you join us.

In a period characterized by soaring mortgage rates, overheating house prices, and dwindling affordability, October 2023 has emerged as the least affordable month for U.S. housing this century.

Research and Data Analysis: ResiClub will conduct its research, gathering proprietary local market data and producing in-depth analyses that will enable individuals and professionals to make informed decisions in an ever-changing housing environment.
