Instead of reacting emotionally, I stayed professional.

Are you sure these aren't emotional support animals?

At $2k/month, that’s $200/month or $2.4k/year, which is your stress buffer.Escalate through structure, not emotion.

It’s a structural one.Why it’s happeningBuilders have tools individual sellers do not:• They can buy down mortgage rates into the 3’s-mid-5s while resales are stuck at 6.5%+• They can offer closing cost credits without triggering appraisal issues• They adjust pricing based on absorption rates, not emotions• Inventory carries measurable costs for them, so they act fasterMeanwhile, resale sellers are slow to reprice and anchored to peak-era expectations.That creates a pricing gap investors aren’t used to seeing.The investor angleFor most of the 2010s, investors avoided new construction because it was more expensive, taxed higher, and offered no rent premium.

These changes don’t involve physical alterations to the property but instead adjust how housing services or policies are administered.Examples of Reasonable Accommodations:Allowing a service animal or emotional support animal in a “no pets” community.Providing a reserved parking space closer to the resident’s unit for someone with mobility limitations.Permitting rent payment by mail or online for a resident who has trouble visiting the office.Extending rental deadlines temporarily due to hospitalization or disability-related delays.Landlord Responsibility:Landlords must approve reasonable requests that do not create an undue financial or administrative burden.Requests should be handled promptly and confidentially.You may request verification of the disability or need for the accommodation (especially if it’s not obvious), but you cannot ask about the details of the disability itself.Tenant Responsibility:The tenant must make the request (verbally or in writing) and explain how the accommodation relates to their disability.The tenant must continue to follow all lease terms unrelated to the accommodation.What Is a Reasonable Modification?
