State regulations and taxes are the problem. The people who can afford to build apartments are big money. Reduce zoning regulations, property taxes and get rid of Urban Growth Boundaries to expand land use and create competition. Then rents would go down. Government over reach is the problem period.
We moved to Bend, after our town of Paradise, ca. Burned down to buy a home and got priced out immediately! We are now "Apartment Dwellers", that feel somewhat without a stake in this "Great Community!"
Public land needs to have logging/thinning/brush management and close dispersed camping within 10 miles of Sisters/Bend, especially during summer months.
First of all, that agent you had on was an absolute uninformed idiot. Where is the compassion. Weather the storm. What storm. Itβs because the insurance companies are having to pay out after collecting billions of dollars. Boo Hoo, now we must pay. There is no fire here,
And RENT CONTROL!!
