Missing sarcasm tag on building homes quickly.
- nottorp 3y agoAlso on right across from the overpriced ones. Should have been obvious...
- Geisterde 3y agoThere is property for sale in probably every corner of the world, you dont need to build anything.
- blactuary 3y agoThis is laughable. Every major metro area in the US is in the midst of a crisis of lack of housing supply.
- Geisterde 3y agoAnd yet, property is for sale everywhere, go check zillow. You might not like the price, I imagine anybody looking to buy property to rent out probably has similar feelings; ultimately though, if they are using this "price fixing" algorithm, then it should be easy enough to out compete them by just lowering prices.
- blactuary 3y agoThat doesn't make any sense. There is a dramatic under-supply of housing, there will be no "out-competing". They're going to rent all of their apartments, the price-fixers and the non-price-fixers. They'd just be leaving money on the table, not "out-competing". They're not going to magically acquire a bunch of new non-existent housing to grow their market share. I implore you to move beyond econ 101 thinking.
- Geisterde 3y agoThen its not price fixing, thats the market price. If I produce 3 fidgets a week and they all sell by monday morning, Id raise the price.
- tomn 3y agoOops. I've seen worse free-market capitalist opinions held earnestly on HN, so it's hard to tell...
- nottorp 3y agoYeah, the one i replied to for example :)
