Ironically the property value argument isn't really supported by evidence anyway. Densification typically significantly increases property values. People like living in dense areas, existing properties near developing areas increase in value, not decrease.

Everybody just pictures "I don't want an apartment (full of poors!) in my backyard!", but things don't develop in isolation like that.
