How does prop 13 cause a housing crisis?

It certainly entices people to hold and rent properties they own rather than sell, but those units are still part of the housing stock.

I think repealing prop 13 for commercial properties makes sense as a way to raise tax revenue, but don’t see doing so for residential property having an impact on housing costs.
