I mean they kinda are, but those areas just miss out on tax dollars of larger scale developments. I’d rather see more support and for lower cost housing that doesn’t get flipped immediately into airbnbs. Stronger regulations that temper this current market of turning housing into a commodity where speculative reality businesses are out bidding home owners. That goes for single family and multifamily. U can build a huge priced right housing development but if all the units just turn into air bnb or rented out by shitty land lords, then we have solved nothing
In the macro picture, more supply always helps. Flood the market with airbnbs and airbnb owners can’t charge as much so they’ll stop buying so many. More rentals lowers prices so you don’t have to rent from a slumlord.
But I agree, direct legislation is more immediate and effective.
And that needs to change. Local communities are harming the nation with their NIMBY shit. Feds should step in.
So then the federal government should regulate zoning laws. Which is the opposite of fewer federal regulations.
You’ll never believe this, but you can actually add a regulation that removes or negates other regulations, resulting in overall fewer regulations.
No one ever mentioned fewer federal regulations
