The city of Fishers, Indiana has passed the “Last No in Housing” ordinance, limiting rental homes to 10% of neighborhoods. This move reflects a trend where single-family homes are being built for rentals due to zoning restrictions on apartments and limited mortgage access. The housing market since 2008 has seen rent inflation, pushing prices up until new single-family homes became feasible. This has led to a rise in single-family rental homes being built to meet demand. However, this exclusivity in housing is driving up costs in poorer neighborhoods, leading to debates on housing policies and regulations in various cities.
