The Pomp Podcast · Opendoor CEO: Housing Is Broken (Here’s the Fix) | Kaz Nejatian · 23 Jan 2026 podcast

Mm-hmm.

owning a home is like a little bit like being married to a community it makes a difference in how you feel about it and the data is just undeniable look i think the most important thing we can do is this kids that grow up in a home that their parents own have better life outcomes fascinating

And this matters.

It matters to future world because we are trending the wrong way.

For the first time in American history, young people are buying their first home on average after they turn 40.

That means they're setting down roots later.

They get to create multi-generational wealth later.

Wealth transfer in America primarily happens through home ownership.

They're actually, we're having a real struggle.

And I think this is partially because we have fewer homes than we need.

And that's real.

We should build more homes.

But it's also partially because the friction in homeownership has gone up while the friction in everything else has gone down.

It's much easier to buy a mattress than it used to be 20 years ago.

But it's more expensive to buy a home than it used to be 20 years ago.

Just the transactional costs have gone up.

Why?

Look, I think if you think about how you buy anything today, you buy shoes, you used to go to a cobbler, you didn't have your size, you have to go around, you have to spend a bunch of time.

Today you want shoes, go to Allbirds and you buy your shoes.

You don't like them, you return them, right?
