Slideshow: Scenes from BizSense’s inaugural Open House panel discussion

Rising interest rates, tight housing inventory, land costs and availability, and home affordability.

Those were the topics on everyone’s mind at the inaugural Open House, BizSense’s new event focused on the state of the region’s residential real estate market.

Held last week at the Foundry at Tredegar and presented by the Home Building Association of Richmond, the event featured a panel of industry veterans consisting of:

Ricky Core, president of Markel | Eagle Partners

John Finn Jr., senior managing broker of United Real Estate Richmond

Laura Lafayette, CEO of the Richmond Association of Realtors

Andrew Price, president of the Richmond Mortgage Bankers Association

Greg Shron, COO of Center Creek Homes

Tricia Smith, president of the Richmond division of Schell Brothers
