Developer: "Hi neighbor, would you like me to build a house so that someone can live in it? Do keep in mind that it would increase housing supply in your area, thus increasing supply and putting downward pressure on your property's value. That okay?"
Neighbor: "No, thank you!"
- Eumenes 3y agoSounds good to me. I'm surrounded by woods, I'd 100% oppose any development around me.
