Because you figure that it's either brought as corporate investments, part time places for the uber rich, or on the flipside if you're a regular person with a good deal on an apartment you realize it's worth gold and you don't give it up, even if you don't really live in the city. (which is apparently part of the problem in SF since you guys have stronger rent regulation laws), thus making the problem exponentially worse.

These high prices are making things wacky in more ways then you gotta be rich to live there.
