Why would you rent your home out with the risk of bedbugs?
- zer0tonin 3y agoMoney is used to purchase good and services.

- blakblakarak 3y agoHomes? Nah they’re ‘investments’. I live in Brittany, France and new buyers, low earners etc are completely priced out of the market. My partner is a nurse and at her hospital they are closing wards because nurses, cleaners, healthcare assistants and even junior doctors can’t find, let alone afford accommodation.
- developer93 3y agoGonna go back to the days where the company owned your accommodation & you had a house as long as you had the job?
- sethammons 3y agoI'm hearing more and more about it. Company stores and company towns. Nope, nothing to learn from historically here at all.
- theshrike79 3y agoIt wasn't all bad. In here The Company (a paper factory) guaranteed home loans for employees, a ton of people got dirt-cheap loans and paid off their homes in record time. My aunt still lives in one of those homes, they've been debt free since before the millennium.
- the-dude 3y agoThere are plenty of good examples of company provided housing in The Netherlands, early 20th century. The Netherlands can't be the only country where it did work out. I was born and raised in a beautiful company built neighbourhood. Small but decent houses, a school, some shops and enough room for some 'green'.
- developer93 3y agoBournville in UK is another example. It was definitely a step up at the time, but I feel like conditions are somewhat better an century and a half later and if they would be going back to where losing your house with your job is an acceptable risk, it would now be a step down.
