- Title
5 Strategies That Could Boost Supply.
- Authors
WOLF, ALI
- Abstract
This article discusses several policy options aimed at addressing the imbalance between supply and demand in the housing market. The proposed strategies include higher taxes on investment properties, increasing the capital gains exclusion for home sellers, eliminating or easing land-use restrictions, subsidizing supply for lower-income households, and utilizing public/private partnerships to redevelop commercial office spaces into residential units. While these strategies have the potential to increase housing supply, there are potential drawbacks and challenges associated with each approach. It is important to understand these proposals, even though the article does not advocate for any specific policy.
