Interested how this plays out in other countries in terms of both reception and actual effect. The current Korean gov set out to reduce house prices by various methods: e.g. high property taxes on houses that are not the owners primary residence, banning loans/mortage for flipping homes, etc. But prices have gone up more during this regulation. People suspect its actually driving buyers to buy before more regulations in the future.
I feel like the only way would be to restrict to one house per co-residence family unit in contested cities. But I have no knowledge of real estate/economics, and I'm sure it'll be called communism. So really feels like a near impossible problem to solve.
- wsc981 5y agoAs others have mentioned the best solution is to just build a massive supply of houses, in order for supply to outstrip demand. This, however, is unlikely to happen in the next 10-15 years. Especially if The Netherlands keeps the current immigration levels up (~400 people per week).
