In the following section, we address each of the key arguments that increasing supply does not improve affordability. Many of the arguments are plausible, and we take them seriously, but we ultimately conclude, from both theory and empirical evidence, that adding new homes moderates price increases and therefore makes housing more affordable to low and moderate income families."<br/> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"We analyze four of the most frequently voiced arguments below, drawing on both basic economic theory and empirical evidence.<br/> A. Housing is Bundled with Land, but Still is Ruled by the Laws of Supply and Demand<br/> B. Housing is Heterogeneous, but Adding Supply in One Market Will Affect Prices in Another<br/> C. Easing price pressure through additional supply may attract some demand–but not enough to completely offset the supply increase.<br/> D. Adding supply may raise neighborhood rents in some cases, but neither theory nor empirical evidence suggest that will be the norm."<br/> &nbsp;
