For real. What else is to be done? Pricing out your labor from the local economy isn't sustainable. Plus if the economists are to be believed, once developers are unfettered and available supply goes to infinity to meet our latent demand, rents shouldn't rise beyond wages, and rent control rent increase limits of perhaps 5% a year (as they are where I live) wouldn't even be hit. So why all the consternation? I don't get it.
