So many reasons for this, but it boils down to the marginal cost on building a 4-5 BR vs. a 2 BR house is small compared to the profit upside.

If you want a 2 BR, you need to look in old neighborhoods or buy a condo.

I understand the economic reality, but it’s somewhat depressing how it seems like we think only in these terms now — what will maximize financial returns. The investment part supersedes the original purpose, which is to have a place to live.
