Goke7: Same on my former street. Empty houses now have occupants and derelict ones have been renovated For sale and renovations everywhere. In actual fact, they pulled down houses on a massive expanse of land and last time I went to the area, they're almost done Landlords dey cash out the most ![]() 1 Like |

hustla: It's always the same universities that complain the loudest. Never the likes of Oxbridge or St Andrews or UCL or LSE or Warrick.... Fact is, if they are not competitive or highly ranked enough to attract international students from all countries, not just Africa(Nigeria) and India, and without selling immigration as a sweetener, then they probably need to close/scale down. 1 Like |

Zahra29: If they close down, landlords will also cry and suffer for it. Some cities thrive because students come and go, not because they have much to offer Businesses around will also see a dip in their income L all around ![]() 2 Likes |

Goke7: ![]() Well, the crisis is there Landlords are the one majorly cashing out as they can increase rent now and demand 6 months rent upfront from immigrants |

hustla: so where is the pressure on housing they talk about, no be cash and carry things? |

hustla: It's normal - businesses need to constantly evolve and diversify in order to survive. They might die and new ones will spring up. Blockbusters, HMV, Woolworths, even Wilko died off and life has gone on since. |

Goke7: Remember many years ago, you put your name on the council list and government gives you subsidised accommodation....... That trend is now a dying horse, hence pressure on private LL's......... (MT also brought out a policy, to sell CP at huge discounts)... Government never rebuilt lost properties, hence this housing pressure pot...... Shortage of council properties, puts council property tenants + private tenancy occupancts in a situation where both of the aforementioned, are chasing few properties (basic economics principles)....... High demand = Higher prices........ ππ NB: I would NEVER advice any prospective buyer, to buy an ex council property....... π (unless it's a standalone house)......π 2 Likes |

Goke7: The reason, people always use this cane to flog UK politicians....... They are simply not building enough social properties....... Germany on the other hand, builds over 250K units every year on year since 2001 ....... |

Zahra29: Uhhh ![]() Or if they must, let them get the kind of student job that Justwise got during his time. He previously mentioned that he paid off his international student school fees from his student job earnings. And implied he was paid a lot per hour while on the limited hours allowed for students. |

Been enjoying the Hustle/Goke7/Zahra29 economics since. Lol. None of you guys mentioned the boats, all focus was on skilled immigrants/students. What's happening to the boats?? Are we saying these illegal immigrants are not significant in number?? |

And for housing shortages, honestly I agree with Goke/Hustle. Something is changing, however subtle, houses are being renovated in my area in Rotherham... But it still doesn't mean houses are now 2/penny, there's some bias or intentional withholding of properties by landlords. Still studying what's really going on, it's like artificial scarcity. |

In other news, I still wonder why UK is still all about paper paper paper mails! Why?? Almost everyday a paper advert mail from Royal Mail is slid into d house! Wetin dey sup gangan?

The people ruling this country donβt know what they want. Majority of the citizens have no clue about what they even want. The blame culture in this country scares me a lot, constantly looking for who to blame when things go wrong for their own ineffectiveness. 2 Likes |
