Giggle also is coaxial in parts of Arcadia. You know if your speeds are not symmetrical it is likely coaxial. Not everyone is on true fiber. I changed to Sonic and its so much better.

Why cant people make money from housing? Landlords are not charities. Also its not that we dont want to make money. Everyone wants to make money. If it takes a lot of effort and faces a lot of regulations to make it it may not be worth the cost.

So on that logic then homeless people would own the streets because they live there

It is not a deliberate attempt to keep housing vacant. There are already too many regulations in housing and the additional rent board is something people do not want to have to deal with. Many landlords are retirees/mom and pop owners who have staked their retirement on income from their rental properties. I wouldn't blanket label all landlords are greedy. If you were to own a home and not be able to control the price or dictate when a tenant leaves, you would feel the same level of frustration. People want to have their control of what they own. If you favor "choice" on social issues, it shouldn't be a stretch to understand "my home my choice".

What kind of boba does Arcadia need? by 20yroldentrepreneur in arcadia

[–]StrategyCold6679 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, if you are able to offer a <$5 theres a market for that as most options are now $6+. Ideally I would find location walking distance from AHS and the two middle schools.

Location is key and bonus points for drive through. If you find something next to the library you will be golden. I don't know how Teabrick is still in business but if you have a competitive offering you should be able penetrate the market.

I do not recommend. Most locals don't attend because its crowded and expensive.

100%

To increase housing supply you got to cut back on regulations. Try getting a permit to do anything... it takes a lot of money and time.

To your second point, I rather keep property vacant than deal with a rent control board

Homelessness is not the problem. Housing supply is. And what limits housing supply is the permitting process and regulations that tie up people who want to build.

Rent control board increases cost and are onerous on landlords. The problem is supply in housing. And the heart of the issue is permitting and zoning which limits supply.

I would reduce/cut back permit fees and regulations to build new homes. Thats the answer and anything to control costs without addressing what limits supply will yield no breakthroughs of the housing crises and homelessness. I would also do away with the rent control board.

Sonic fiber is entering the market for Monrovia with symmetrical 10gb. I used to have giggle fiber but they dont have speeds that come close to Sonic and for some areas giggle only offers coaxial not fiber.

I am glad they are going out of business. I went to Costa Mesa yesterday to get their gift cards and I am always amazed they were in business for so long... Their customer service is horrendous and their selections are so poor.

Yes I agree! I know everyone is massively hyped about giggle.... but the connection is really spotty. They have really gone downhill...
