Back the Housing Package
A Supply-Side Solution
The Wisconsin REALTORS® Association (WRA) is advocating for new housing legislation to address the state’s significant supply and affordability crisis. With inventory levels at historic lows and Wisconsin’s median home price at $338,000-the highest in the Midwest- homeownership has become increasingly inaccessible, particularly for first-time and middle-income buyers. The proposed bills aim to address that challenge by specifically targeting the shortage of “missing middle” housing.

As the administrator of the loan programs, the Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority (WHEDA) has already released three of the four programs:
- Infrastructure Access Loan Program
- Restore Main Street Loan Program
- Vacancy-to-Vitality Loan Program
- More Like Home™ Repair and Renew Loan Program
Wisconsin isn’t just building houses; it’s building communities.
