Could the hottest real estate market become... driveways?

Twenty years ago, buying a house in Seattle felt like a stretch. Today, it feels like you need to win the lottery.  Homeownership is slipping out of reach for a lot of people, especially those with modest incomes.  But there’s a movement underway in Washington State -- one that could bring housing costs back within reach.  State legislators want to make it legal to live in an RV in someone’s backyard or driveway year-round.   On today's episode: could letting people live in tiny houses on wheels on someone's property actually reduce our state’s housing shortage? And could it be a solution for you?  Thank you to the supporters of KUOW, you help make this show possible!
