New York may soon mandate sprinkler systems in newly built single-family and two-family homes, an initiative supported by firefighters for safety. However, Long Island contractors argue that the estimated installation cost of $20,000 to $30,000 could make homeownership more unaffordable. They claim the new rule may not effectively address fire safety, as recent studies show no fatalities in newer homes since 2000. Builders are concerned that such regulations could further complicate the already challenging landscape of affordable housing.
The price of homeownership is becoming harder and harder for most people to obtain.
When it comes down to it, what's price for a life?
