It’s so hard to buy a house when there are fewer people around every year to increase demand, everyone your age or younger is on average more and more broke and settling for living in storage units and cars or dangerous countries, and AI/robotics are on the cusp of driving labor and material costs down dramatically. How can anyone view houses as an investment or even just a small nice to have luxury? I guess if you had a family it makes sense. But only then, really.

And if you say well investor-corps think they’re a good buy, they want to get a monopoly on all housing and set prices— this doesn’t look like that kind of scheme to me, it looks more like a scheme to have a guaranteed bankruptcy and a guaranteed bailout (which would still be profitable for a corp but not for a single homeowner).
