This is the view out the northern window in my bathroom. My neighbor has been cleaning their yard for years, which has just involved them piling garbage in a trailer. The trailer has never been emptied, and At this point I doubt they could move it without the majority of the trash falling out.
Luckily the fence on that side of the yard is 6 feet, so I do not really see the trash under normal circumstances.
Yeah, they would say NIYBY to your garbage pile. And that could make their homes more desirable to buy and live in (“keep housing prices up”). Definitely don’t want that.
Unironically yes, new families affording homes is more important than a return on investment for people who are privileged enough to own them.
Housing as an investment is fucked, and nobody but the individuals living their should own a home.
Not allowing investment properties is different than not allowing eyesores. I don’t think you want to keep prices down by letting the place go to shit.
