[quote=Arraya]Your thinking is backwards. Think in terms of total available housing. If you release more properties to the RE market it will push home prices down and current renters to purchase. Then you have the people that are currently living for free that would have to either find a new rental or create denser living arrangements. The net effect would be downward pressure on rentals and home prices due to the employment picture as less people have employment and would have to “shack up” with somebody.[/quote]
So you believe there are going to be enough willing and able buyers out there despite your views on the coming employment picture?
