The main argument of the article “The Affordable Housing Crisis Causes and Solutions” is that the lack of affordable housing is a major issue in many cities and towns across the United States and that there are a variety of solutions that can be implemented to address this crisis.
Key points: include the causes of the crisis, such as rising housing costs, stagnant wages, and the lack of available housing, the effects of the crisis such as homelessness, overcrowding, and displacement, and potential solutions, such as rent control, increased public housing, and zoning reform. An opposing viewpoint could be that the affordable housing crisis is not a major issue, or that the solutions proposed are not effective. When evaluating the credibility of a source, it is important to consider the author's publication, the content of the article, and how the argument or article connects to real estate. For example, if the author is a real estate expert or has published articles on the subject, this shows creditability. Additionally, if the article has corrected and up-to-date information, this is a good sign of credibility, Finally, if the article is relevant to the real estate market and supplies evidence to support its claims.
