Bio
Great Expectations was founded in 2019 by Ben Maritz, a former management consultant who was passionate about finding data-driven, market-based solutions to his home regions housing issues, including homelessness. While researching the topic of housing construction as part of a pro-bono engagement, Ben was struck by the wide discrepancy in construction costs for different types of housing units. He realized, as others had before him, that small units could deliver a sustainable way to build more housing at scale.
