That was what rentals were supposed to be. And then there was also such a thing as a "starter home". From what I see in Omaha, it's the developers that got greedy — figuring they could get more dosh turning a higher-end home than a starter home on the same lot.

That’s not greedy though? Are you greedy if you build more valuable software and then charge more for it?

  • Of course it's greed. The question is how ethical the greed is in a given situation. If it's luxury software, no problem. If it contributes to a housing affordability issue, not so much.
