As a matter of economic rationality, local governments should deregulate their housing markets to allow an increased housing supply to meet a rising demand for housing. As a political matter, however, incumbent residents who already own housing vociferously and effectively protest against the reduction of zoning restrictions."<br/> &nbsp; &nbsp; "How, then, to free up urban land markets from the stranglehold of zoning driven by NIMBY (not-in-my-back-yard) neighbors? We argue, paradoxically, that the solution to excessive zoning is centralized, comprehensive, and binding land-use planning."<br/> &nbsp; &nbsp; "We argue in Part III.A that binding, comprehensive plans allow legislators to create “contracts” across electoral districts that are otherwise impossible when zoning proceeds through piecemeal lot-by-lot bargaining." [[Comprehensive_plan|Comprehensive plan]].&nbsp;<br/> &nbsp; &nbsp; "We argue in Part III.B that parcel-by-parcel bargaining imposes high information costs on outside investors, thereby reducing the market for investment in new housing to a handful of local insiders with incentives to constrain supply."<br/> &nbsp; &nbsp;"Prescriptions below in Part IV, including the idea that mayors and city planning departments ought to regularly redraw the citywide zoning map to comprehend all pending development proposals, a process that would look something like an annual budgeting process. [see [[Zoning_budget|Zoning budget]] -Yimbywiki].&nbsp;Other proposals include fixed prices, defined ex ante in the zoning ordinance, for additional building rights [see [[Transfer_of_development_rights|Transfer of development rights]] -Yimbywiki]&nbsp;and prohibitions on any downzoning until citywide housing goals, defined with hard figures like vacancy rates or building permits issued, are met."&nbsp;&nbsp;''<br/> &nbsp;

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;
