Just collect from the takeaway instead of waiting for home delivery. Simples.
If only these were both solvable problems. Alas, we are doomed.
So we obviously have a severe housing crisis, but this report is BS by a real estate company.
>It said population growth in comparison to housing delivery between 2015 and 2023, shows that 3.8 people were added to the population for every one new unit of housing delivered
Okay. But the average number of people in a household in Ireland is 2.74. Even in 1990 that number was 3.34, so this report would suggest Ireland is over delivering on homes.
But is the 2.74 figure healthy is what we really should be asking.
Just get them house 3D printers
Can’t wait for the open border loons to start gaslighting
STOP RIDING TA FUCK!!
“Mwahahahahaha” – the Government / hoteliers / landlords / NGO’s
And while we can’t force people not to have kids, we can in fact control the number of people who come into the country.
But we’re not allowed to, apparently. So supply is outpaced by demand, and landlords reap the benefits.
Uncontrolled immigration led to Brexit.
We are facing the same issues. Our population growth isn’t sustainable and huge immigration and a housing crisis leads to anti immigrant sentiment.
Far right parties are making huge gains across Europe and we need to figure out something quickly to tackle that.
Can’t allow the far right to get a foothold in society.
If people objected less, number of new home would be twice the population growth
everyone stop riding till we get the houses built
Is anyone shocked by this? And I suspect the numbers as presented were kind of massaged.
Between planning, construction, finishing, letting or selling it takes years to build a house. With the existing backlog of people needing housing and more arrivals daily we are never going to get on top of the situation. It’s just not going to happen.
And the problem is if we were to build masses of estates nationwide the minute there is a short sharp economic contraction or recession people will flee the state and we will be left with a mountain of ghost estates that will make the crisis in 2008 look like the good old times.
if you control supply you control demand, if demand is high the price is high – this does not take a genius to figure out, why build 4 houses when you can sell one at the price of 4? all you need is keep demand high. – Listening to the government waffle on about how many houses ‘they plan on delivering’ – they only grant the developers permission to build houses, they do not actually build the fucking houses themselves – why would any developer rush to the marketplace when the price is going up every day?
What home delivery?
The government is working against the people on purpose.
How can people afford having so many kids?
You guys should Brexit like we did.
And it’s not the tax payers having the kids but the ones who aren’t contributing so this is all one big massive growing disaster.
> 3.8 people were added to the population for every one new unit of housing delivered, a ratio of nearly four to one.
Weird metric, since there are an average of 2.75-ish people per dwelling.
I’m not saying things aren’t bad, but it would be better to compare number of bedrooms delivered against population growth, or % pop growth against % units growth.
Or simply compare people per dwelling over time.
Home delivery is less than a quarter of population growth.*
Technically means the same thing, but it sends the correct message, that the slow delivery of new homes is the issue, not population growth, or as it should really be called, population recovery.
