Chamber CEO attends Housing Development Forum

The Housing and Development Forum, June 12, 2026, co-hosted by the Chinese American Real Estate Association (CAREA) and the Small Builders Association (SBA) on June 12, 2026, was a highly impactful and forward-looking event that drew housing leaders, developers, and homeowners to the Sunnyvale Community Center Ballroom. Titled "Housing Policy and Market Opportunities," the three-hour forum focused on actionable ways to accelerate housing development across California, drawing special significance as Sunnyvale actively implements local initiatives to expand residential capacity.

High-profile speakers, including California State Treasurer Fiona Ma, delivered critical insights on innovative financial frameworks, public-private sector decisions, and leveraging recent state laws to streamline building processes. The event successfully bridged the gap between policy and practice, creating an energetic collaborative space where contractors and builders could master practical perspectives to navigate today’s constrained real estate market.
