In light of the YIMBYs this week tipping their hand in attempting to no-platform tenants of color at risk of displacement due to SB827, I recommend the @antievictionmap's excellent report, "The Racial Contours of YIMBY/NIMBY Bay Area Gentrification" https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4sw2g485 …
See the first comment for an example of a renter. It’d be interesting to see real numbers on the number of non-resident *non-rental* properties in these buildings. I’d guess the vacancy rate would be higher than SF overall but lower than e.g. Vancouver, where speculation is worse

I’d also like that data. The commenter’s argument is valid. I didn’t mean to present the data as the end all be all, just as an offhand illustration of how increasing luxury supply doesn’t increase available units in a significant way

That said, I’m not sure how transferring power from someone like the commenter to a company like Lennar helps anyone, especially when the resultant building would - by the nature of the bill - not be beholden to any singular community that it affects
