It’s already explained. More builders, more homes, more choices.
Comment on If landlords didn’t exist anymore, how would shared flats work?

Bootlicker- noun someone who seeks favor or goodwill in a servile, degraded way; toady: He comes across as a facile bootlicker, someone who would do anything like a lapdog to please somebody in the chain of command.

Can you give us an example of a country where this is happening?

More builders. More homes being given the “contractor special” no renter asked for to justify raising the price. I added a Ring doorbell and Nest thermostats so it’s a SMART home now, please up!

Except they’re all bought out. There aren’t “more choices.” There are fewer, because now your options are “be notably wealthy” or “get fucked.”

The problem is that housing prices rise due to a shortage of homes, and a big issue is that there’s not enough land in populated areas to just build more housing.
