"Paul Habibi, a professor at the University of California at Los Angeles’s Ziman Center for Real Estate, said there is a shortage of 500,000 affordable units in Los Angeles, which TODs can help address.
" 'There’s a widespread belief that the affordability problem needs to be solved from the supply side,” Habibi said. 'Density is one mechanism by which to have that happen, because developers can increase the number of units in any given community.'
"He added that reducing parking requirements is key because parking can add $100,000 to the cost of building a typical condo, which is then passed on to the resident."
