<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Planners,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In your work on missing middle housing and/or MBTA Communities, have you come across any information on the following:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Property value impacts of missing middle housing – both for properties that are zoned for it, and properties adjacent to it<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Feasibility of creating missing middle housing in the MA market? For example, a local report like this one:

options versus tear down and rebuild a single-family home, <o:p></o:p></li><ul style="margin-top:0in" type="circle">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level2 lfo1">Developer valuation of a property for tear down versus reuse<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level2 lfo1">Profit margins to make missing middle worthwhile<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level2 lfo1">Unit sizes so that 3-4 multi-family units results in more profit than single-family home of same total square footage<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
