You are ignoring the concept of competition. Housing is not the most competitive market due to restrictions both natural (limited space) and artificial (zoning), but there is still competition.
- johnnybazooka 12y agoSee that's my point... there is only so much land in the middle of NYC that is zoned right for condos, so the competition really won't increase. Also, real estate in general is a very capital intensive industry, which takes out 99% of competition anyways. How many people are there that can raise $200 million to build a project. Not many.
- seanflyon 12y ago> How many people are there that can raise $200 million to build a project. Not many. First, you don't need many for competition; you just need a few. Second, there are lots of people who can raise a mere $200 million.
