You don’t need a lawn to have equity. There a plenty to frameworks that can offer equity in these recently legalized multi-family dwellings. Condominiums, duplexes, townhouses to make a few.
- unethical_ban 4y agoI didn't argue that. But in my experience in the south, that's what goes up. I'm suggesting we should be more active in calling for condos and townhomes instead of apartments.
- blululu 4y agoGood point. Thank you for clarifying. The legalization of multi-family homes would not prevent this trend but zoning for owner occupied units seems like a reasonable policy to shift the outcomes.
- hacker934 4y agoRenting has some benefits over owning. Particularly if you are in a stage in life where it's valuable to change your city. In America, we have policies that subsidize owning over renting, like the mortgage interest tax deduction. I don't think we need more policies to make renting more expensive.
