idk, not a thing here, in the last 30 years rarely ever were there periods where income:housing costs ratio was more favorable than it is now

Big company buys house
Big company rents house
Big company buys more houses
Big company rents more houses
Big company buys all the houses
Big company rents all the houses
Big company raises rent
People have no choice but to pay because big company owns all houses and dictates prices
I am smart

People are being increasingly shoved into a few large agglomerations. And the Netherlands is nothing but an agglomeration.

>>213596100 (OP)
Honestly so few people control and own homes

The choice is becoming
Kill 100 people so 10,000,000 can have homes
Or don't

I advocate forcefully taking homes from the hyper rich and hedge funds to end homelessness. Violently.

Basic logic has to kick in

i heard that western countries have strict zoning laws that prevents houses from being built in big number
here we don't have zoning laws and you're free to build everything everywhere, which has pros and cons
the advantage is that a lot of houses are being built here (Poland builds more housing than the UK despite the latter being more populous and having a much higher growth rate) which lowers their price, the main flaw is that it makes the newly built areas extremely chaotic and dense because developers invest very little in public space and infrastructure

Because of Jews

have you ever played monopoly ?
we live in a big monopoly game

>>213596793
Jeets could stay there
Black rock, gates, blackstone
Would still hold those houses and wed still have 14 million homeless

It's very simple. Take their shit and put people homes. Anyone trying to stop it, we kill and their family.
There we go. Homelessnress and housing solved

Eventually basic logic has to work homes are meant to house not lay around

>>213596163
So why do so many polacks on here complain about high rent prices?

>>213596928

Digital nomads work remote

>>213596952
about high rent prices in Poland or in NL?
as for NL - probably because they are high?
as for Poland - I'm not saying it's super good here but it was never better here than now. Way more Poles emigrated abroad for work 20 years ago than now, because back then the situation was much worse than now. But still, it's the minority that has a problem with housing here, most people simply get their apartment/house bought by their parents or live in big multigenerational houses. If someone complains about "high rent prices" then you already know he's in a small minority of Poles because very few Poles need to rent overall, we are a nation of homeowners.

Digital nomads go to places that are cheap. They go to Thailand to get laid or to Greece to lounge around on the beach.
They don't go to one of the most expensive countries in the world.

Once we kill all the mainland ccp ch1nks then global housing market will be way better.

Blackrock doesn't actually buy houses, blackstone does.

But investment firms buying homes also isn't a problem since they don't leave them empty, they rent them out. Suburban areas in the USA where investors have bought single family homes have experienced rent declines. Renting isn't a bad thing, its a necessary option for many people, many are not in a position to buy and they need homes to rent.

Of course, in USA, most investor owned single family homes are actually build to rent, which makes sense considering individual single family homes really aren't that great of an investment, but build to rent communities can be since you've scaled up maintenance costs and property management.

I know, my question is: why are all countries in the world failing at meeting building demand.

>>213598502
In USA, its varies based on metro area and region.

The main reason is simply that construction productivity has lagged behind other sectors. People in USA spend very little today on food/clothing due to how cheap those are, which frees up income to outbid each other in the housing sector.

However, I would also blame zoning laws, especially in many metros in the USA. Many municipalities make it very difficult for dense development to happen, which leads to an undersupply. Liberalizing zoning laws, parking requirements, building codes are the best thing a local government can do to help with housing supply. There's not much local governments can do about material and labor costs, but they can do everything possible to get out of the way of developers.

But not all are failing to meet demand, many cities in the south are meeting demand perfectly fine. My city was doing great and has had stable slightly falling rent the past 3 years despite heavy migration from other states but will likely experience rent hikes next year due to interest rates remaining high and the tariffs/immigration crackdown doesn't help.

>>213598502

I'd also add rent control in this for certain metros (NYC for example).

Rent control is a terrible policy that suppresses housing construction. NYC currently has a bunch of high income earners that should be demanding new construction sitting in rent control apartments paying below market rate. Rent control benefits incumbent renters who are fine living in the same place for a long time, and harms young people and newcomers.
