Build more yes. But you have to prevent "investors" from buying it all up. City of Vancouver built loads of houses but "investors" bought them all up. Vancouver is ranked the third most expensive city in the world for housing.

Also, aren't there plenty of unoccupied homes in Northern England towns? But there's no jobs. So there lies another problem. Supplies of houses where there's no jobs, and vice versa.

It sounds like they didn't build enough.
