- no_wizard 3y agoIt’s the reverse really. Though I didn’t realize prop 13 effectively prohibits a LVT, the way it works in simple broad strokes is that it heavily taxes under utilized land, so holding vacant property or undeveloped land etc. becomes more expensive over time. It incentives utilization and thereby would drive more building faster and increase supply, as the more utilized the land becomes the better off it is for the land owner
