Hi people.
There's many aspects of our so called housing shortage propping us up, that I don't get but one of the biggest is our tiny population.
The US, 330mil , yet it doesn't even look any bigger in land mass than us , not sure if it is or not but yet whole suburbs , towns and even cities are literally being bulldozed after abandonment. So where are they all living ?
I saw Detroit I think it was, tearing down houses and turning the land back into farmland to downsize the city , just to cope.
Another spot literally tearing down almost finished new houses - 1000's of them , with dozers .
Yet 330 million people, how does this all work and what we can't put a roof over 23 mil , doesn't ad up.
The UK , what 80ish yet look at the size of it- down the toilet !
It does seem to me that if people here stop buying through suspicions, caution, finance being too hard to get whatever or, investors get sick of forking out for way cash negative, start sitting on their hands, or the lot and plus some, then where's our so called shortage then.
Any views on all this.
Cheers
