Thats why disruption has been harder in the industry. 

But incredibly competitive and the big players are building incredibly competitive purpose built housing that is disrupting the industry.

@Ben Simon that is a great question and the answer may be counter intuitive.We find that when there is a major disruption like in 08’ we had more people moving into the city from the SouthShore who are willing to commute to save money on rent.The gateway cities tend to maintain the amount of people in them and subsidized housing does play a roll here as well.Cheers to your success!

Aside from some benefits, I see a lot of room for disruption. 

Which greatly disrupted the neighborhood.I was told I would let someone move into the property then "Their nephew would want to attend the local school system".If I couldn't rent for the money I wanted I would rent "Section 8" to get more money, than the going market rate.I had a complaint that by me fixing my property up, the City is now on their back about their's.Then all of a sudden I started getting calls from the the local city, saying the house is zoned for 2 units and you have 3 units listed.

I'm looking for ways to sell the property without the disruptions to my tenants that would come from listing on MLS and conventional showings.  

Is the issue that they don't want to disrupt traffic?

Try to minimize the disruption to the current tenant. 

The Capitalistic force that is America PLUS the evolution and disruption of technology in Real Estate will be the major challenges preventing such as a ban. 

Eventually, this space will be "disrupted" like the taxi industry and a number of firms are already making this happen.
