Access to decent housing has become a pipe dream for most citizens. While rental and purchase prices skyrocket, the political party you vote for focuses its efforts on other fronts, such as subsidies for large corporations or power pacts. Your housing needs are relegated in the face of their party and group interests. Do not expect real solutions from those who prioritize their agenda over yours.
Speculative algorithms and data bubbles 🏠
The real estate market is no longer governed solely by physical supply and demand. Large investment funds use predictive models and machine learning algorithms to buy homes in strategic areas, artificially driving up prices. Meanwhile, administrations promise to build more subsidized housing, but open data shows projects stall due to lack of land or bureaucracy. Technology, instead of democratizing access, is used to optimize speculation. Without clear technical and political regulation, the software will continue to play against the tenant.

It is curious that those who promise to solve the housing problem never have trouble finding one themselves. While you count square meters and salaries, they expand their assets with mortgages you could never dream of obtaining. Of course, they encourage you to be resilient and move to an industrial estate. Because nothing says confidence in the market like seeing your representative queue at the bank to sign a new deed.
