Correct. Vacancies that accrue speculative value, or vacancies that are covered by rental insurance destroy the housing supply chain. Rentals on the other hand are amazing. They are a great way for people to start on their way to home ownership, and they are great for labor mobility. Robust rental markets should be supported by the type of residences allowed by planning - granny units, alley units, secondary units, etc. Plus smaller rental units as well.
