Bottom of the barrel wages for the uneducated natives are the result of uncontrolled mass migration - we have received millions of immigrants in the last decade, which has basically destroyed wages, and has made the poorest suffer.
On the other hand real estate is held by wealthy old natives and laws are enacted to make sure that real estate increases in price forever, the young be damned - no one cares about them since our population pyramid means they’ll always be a minority.

There is a version in English. Regarding renting, it’s legally almost impossible to kick out a squatter, which means most people choose to leave their empty homes closed instead of renting them, which, added to mass immigration, has led to a surge in rent prices.
