You have the problem backwards. We shouldn’t care what the vacancy rate is for residential properties at least, we should be focused on minimising the percentage of the population who are “seeking but unable to find housing” and yes that is deliberately constructed to avoid dragging the whole cycles and causes of homelessness into the mix. If you are actively trying to get some kind of dwelling, buying or renting, and have not yet managed to do so, then you count for the statistics. Speculation driven rises in residential real estate prices buy/rent are a plague on society and we need to stop framing the problem so that we lose sight of the purpose of housing, it’s to house people… |
