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.
