Other obstacles will remain even in the case of further YIMBY progress, and in the meantime he has offered a variety of reform ideas that both complement YIMBY ideas and also prepare for a future after a YIMBY victory. Among them are re-thinking property taxes, accelerating depreciation schedules, and making it easier for factory housing to get to market.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Arpit and Cardiff end with a chat about the ways that AI can help us understand housing regulations, what AI means for the future of finance, and what he is both optimistic and pessimistic about.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Related links:&nbsp;</strong></p><p><br></p><ul><li><a href=\"https://arpitrage.substack.com/p/remote-works-impact-on-productivity\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Remote Work's Impact on Productivity</a></li><li><a href=\"https://www.nber.org/system/files/working_papers/w30526/w30526.pdf\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Work from Home and the Office Real Estate Apocalypse</a></li><li><a href=\"https://arpitrage.substack.com/p/office-to-residential-conversions\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Office to Residential Conversions</a></li><li><a href=\"https://arpitrage.substack.com/p/unlock-a-housing-boom-through-depreciation\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Unlock a Housing Boom through Depreciation Bonuses</a></li><li><a href=\"https://arpitrage.substack.com/p/1-three-rules-for-ai-in-finance\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Three Rules for AI in Finance</a></li><li><a href=\"https://www.nationalaffairs.com/publications/detail/industrial-policy-housing-construction\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Industrial Policy for Housing Construction</a></li></ul>","author_name":"Economic Innovation Group"}
