Doesn’t China have an issue with 65 million of their homes sitting empty which belong to people with no intention to ever move in?
It’s my understanding that owning a home in China is seen as social leverage so people buy homes that don’t even benefit their lives.
This isn’t too be a pessimist, I do think China’s rising middle class is much better off than it has ever been. I just don’t idealize their housing.
How did they deflate the market? So it wasn’t social pressure but rather economic pressure that led to it?
