Justin Wheeler, CEO of Berkadia, addresses the housing shortage facing homebuyers and something that "can't be fixed overnight." When asked about retrofitting office or commercial real estate into housing, he says it is a complicated process. Justin looks at "densification" and multifamily housing units as a way to be "part of the solution." From set rent payments, utilities factored in and maintenance costs, he adds several reasons that could benefit people looking for a place to live affordably. Justin discusses Berkadia's role in the housing market, lending market and its co-ownership from Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (BRK/B) and Jefferies.
