Re:Oakland shows how to expand housing supply: tell develope... by PeterisP on Monday December 02, 2019 @01:09PM (#21684999)
I'd expect the value of a properly built and maintained house to decrease very slowly (e.g. the building I live in is ~110 years old and not that much worse than when it was built), and while that's still a negative, on the other hand the value of the land would appreciate even (and especially if) there's active building of new homes, so the total value of house+land can be quite stable even if supply is not restricted. It won't skyrocket, though.
