Brief

American Housing argues the U.S. housing market has become skewed toward oversized new single-family homes and presents a 1,500-square-foot, 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath model as a corrective. The post ties that pitch to Stephen Kent's praise for a Scott Lincicome Cato report, using it to reinforce the claim that small families have too few newly built modest-size home options.

"Want a new single-family home at 1,200 square feet? Too bad losers! We only do 4,000+ sqft with 8 bedrooms now."

Enter The American Housing Corporation...
> 4 Bedrooms
> 2.5 Bathrooms
> 1,500 sqft

We are literally rebuilding the American Dream.

This @scottlincicome report is still one of the most radicalizing docs I've read in recent years, as someone with a small family. Want a new single-family home at 1,200 square feet? Too bad losers! We only do 4,000+ sq ft with 8 bedrooms now.
