Reflection and speculation from AJ Dye, a strategic cleantech investor. I have a tendency to focus on cleantech venture capital, sustainability, and private equity, among other topics. Why is housing stuck? Because the refinancing pipeline is clogged like a fraternity toilet. The housing bust wiped out. Of equity nationwide, which means too much debt to refinance.
