This is just a bad article, you can always find a couple of people to interview who just HAVE to live in the most central area in the most popular city and then complain that it's difficult to get a cheap apartment.
There were new stricter laws on black-market leases recently in Sweden, and if you pay too much for a normal lease, you can go to court and get a refund. My personal opinion is that the system works as well as you could expect (except for the most central parts of Stockholm maybe that the clickbait article seems to focus on).
- nivenkos 5y agoIt sucks that you're being downvoted because people don't understand the Swedish housing system and that the main rent controls only apply to first-hand contracts. Stockholm doesn't have the same setup as New York. That said, the 20% YoY increase in property prices is insane.
