Jared Jones is the Co-Founder of Middle Housing Partners and a veteran micro-developer who has spent over a decade working at the front lines of the housing crisis in California. Specializing in SB9, ADUs, and neighborhood-scale infill projects, Jared focuses on mission-driven development that restores affordability, strengthens communities, and brings people back to the neighborhoods they grew up in. He is also an EO (Entrepreneurs' Organization) leader and a respected voice in small-scale development, strategic planning, and innovative build-to-rent models.

What We Discuss

1. Why big developers won't fix the housing crisis: Jared explains why national homebuilders alone can't solve the problem and how small, local developers are the real lever for change.

2. Micro-development as a scalable solution: How housing can realistically be rebuilt one lot, one project, one family at a time, and why that approach actually scales.

3. Pushing through pain as a competitive advantage: Why the difficulty of permitting, regulation, and community resistance is a feature, not a flaw, and how persistence compounds over time.

4. A real-world project restoring affordability: Jared walks through a Riverside, CA project that adds multiple units to an existing lot, cutting housing costs dramatically while preserving neighborhood character.

5. The future of middle housing: What the next 5–10 years could look like if cities embrace density, pre-approved plans, and a mindset shift away from NIMBYism toward stronger communities.
