So so close to completing this ADU and delivering it to its new family. instagram.com/p/CdMzyZZDo8b/…

There are many creative ways to add to the affordable housing supply. Done right, a retained life estate is one example. Soup depends on creativity and generosity like this.sfchronicle.com/realestate/art…

Localities can do a lot to facilitate homebuilding--predictable paths to completion, common-sense rule interpretations, limits on endless process and interdepartmental coordination to name a few.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/new…

Here's one illustration of how important home ownership is to building wealth. Soup increases housing supply and builds wealth for existing homeowners. nytimes.com/2022/05/01/ups…

Who can use SB-9? Something about how anyone with a SFH can now build 4 units on their property. If you have 4000 sqft you can put 4 units. #sb9

About 120,000 houses have been created, few are affordable for the 160,000 individuals who are currently unhoused in the Bay Area. Soup is committed to designing solutions that increase housing density, generate income for homeowners and bolster the local economy.

We believe this is true. This is why we take great pride in proving that affordable housing can be beautiful. If you are interested in bringing beauty to your backyard we would love to help. Get started with a free assessment.

What is Senate Bill 9? It allows property owners to split a single-family lot into two lots. By allowing two units per parcel and permitting property owners to subdivide their lots, the law will increase housing density to as many as four units on a single-family plot.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who donated to Soup on Giving Tuesday! Together we raised over $66,000 in one day! #grateful #together #generosity #givingtuesday2021

A home is a beautiful thing. It is a place of safety and security. A place to venture out from and return to. Everyone deserves to have a place to call home. If you agree, we invite you to partner with us to provide access to affordable housing. buff.ly/31kdmjR

On this day of generosity, we are reminded of the 160,000+ reasons we are so passionate about creating affordable housing in the Bay Area. 160,000+ families and individuals in the Bay Area are without housing. buff.ly/3rk0WDy
