[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here you go for your upzoning. ADU built in the backyard of someone near Beverly Hills area that is a two story, 2 bd/2ba 931 sq ft house for rent for $3,000.

Eat your heart out. So affordable!!!

That's great news. There used to be one housing unit on the parcel, now there are two.

And it looks cute too! Although I don't get the sink/minifridge/microwave thing.[/quote]

So your position is to build housing for the sake of building housing not to make housing affordable, desegregate, or some other made-up reason?  I commend you owning this instead of couching it all in some greater social good gaslighting.[/quote]

Do you think adding to the supply of housing [i]increases[/i] the price of housing?[/quote]

Wouldn't the answer to your general question depend on the type of housing being built? The 900 square foot ADU rental for $3,000 is an additional unit, but it doesn't bring the price of housing down.

You're right, one unit of housing has a negligible effect on the entire housing market.[/quote]
