    If community is awesome, then prices can go up. All the better reason to buy with arranged financing if needed. Ultra generous rent control benefits can prevent you from improving your life if it means moving.

        Helping the most people comes with building the most homes. The awesome part of what he’s doing is foregoing profit. Helps even more people. But keeping “self financed” production up, without micromanaging communities, is likely the best use of his time. The best way to help people isn’t necessarily by gatekeeping for only those who deserve the most help, and reducing the total help provided, bc of the gatekeeping getting in the way.
