The politicians stir up FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt) and voters fall in line with their preconceived party/tribe bias and NOTHING gets improved. 

There have been a handful of states that have passed some weak form of legislation so that they appear to be regulating Qualified Intermediaries, but the actions so far are merely lip service so that politicians appear to be doing something about it. 

Local taxes don't get paid and politicians can't balance a budget when the good times are rolling so my estimate is that taxes in these places will go up. 

@John Morgan DO not stop until you are able to speak to your local politician to try and get the time lines changed in your county they need to move faster 

The Republican sneers at the Democrat and says "those dirty liars, always out for themselves"The Democrat sneers at the Republican and says "those dirty liars, always out for themselves"The constituent sneers at all politicians and says "those dirty liars, always out for themselves"I ask you, who is righteous?

Politicians will be pulling out the stops to get transactions happening.all cash

The West Coast politicians keep trying to outdo each other.

Oh you may skate for a job or two or five but as sure as the sun rises and politicians lie it will end badly. 

Basically, within that range any single family home can be remodeled into 2-4 separate units, and the height limit currently in place along the coast north of Coronado (30 feet) goes up to more than 50 feet.It does NOT allow developers to demo single family homes to build new multi-family though.They seem to have a decent chance at becoming law as developers are pumping a ton of money into the politicians behind the bills, and every time it looks like the bills are about to get shot down a new amendment is added to please someone else and it passes.This is worth paying attention to, even though it will likely get tied up in court.Relevant: https://www.latimes.com/opinion/livable-city/la-ol-sb50-single-family-20190424-story.htmlMany will likely look at @Danny's post in 5 years as a sage call out they wish they had thought more about. 

The main reason is that a media sensationalized police shooting caused the politicians to make alot of changes that brought proactive policing to a halt.
