More permanent housing requirements over time would solve the housing crisis by making all new structures contribute to the total housing in the system

Personally, I don't see a house as an investment when it's made out of materials that degrade after 50 years.

The land isn't worth that much and the cost of rebuilding or major repairs every 50 years means it's not an investment.

Right now housing is being sold for insane hyperinflated prices, and they're not even made to last.

Zero housing code, reinstatement of actual property ownership, deportation of illegals, and banning foreigners from owning property would fix the problem.

Housing code is incredibly fake and gay, it's just a make-work system for bureaucrats, a kickback laundering system for well-connected businesses, and a way to hassle and annoy the goyim by messing with his most important asset.

Don't forget segregation, we need to keep our neighborhoods white.

Agreed. Part of the reason housing prices are so high is because foreign money is being laundered in the US. Rothschild banks encourage this. Properties are empty and not used to house anyone. If housing stock has a requirement that it is occupied, then housing would be more affordable. Ask Vancouver about this. Sure, builders are going to cut corners and still charge a premium when there isn't enough housing stock.

Investors are also buying real estate because the return is good. Capital from financial markets is also driving prices up. Yea, it sucks.

I’ve watched Chinese portfolio money vacuum up everything under a million in a city in a week, no inspection, over asking, cash. Literally every available unit because that city name made the rounds by mouth between brokers in China. Destroyed the local economy and forced a lot of renters to move away.

i think foreigners owning property is fine but only if they are directly living on said property,

That would mean foreigners owning land and being in the country which is even worse.

Hard disagree. I don't think any non-citizen should be allowed to own land. Let them lease it.

I think it would be a net loss.

Like a lot things in society, stuff isn't designed for long term use, it's designed for replacement as this keeps the economy moving. People don't make money from a product that lasts forever.

I don't agree with it but thats how it is.

With taxes the way they are, you never truly own a house or land anyway. You are renting all of it.

always wondered why we dont use stone slabs anymore

how can rocks possible be more expensive now, than in ancient times?

People don't build communities near the resources anymore. Now they build everywhere and anyway and moving things around is what's starting to cost money.

Trucks would rather move cheap particle board than heavy rocks or stone.

They kind of do though. Originally we built the communities at the resources, and these became cities, but the Jews forced us out of the cities.

So then they built the communities in the suburbs, and built them so close to the farms that, well, they are now right on top of the farms. Jews and their realtors/developers buried our most important resources under McMansions and Dieversity.

It's not that rocks are more expensive, it's that other materials are cheaper.

Read the book Living Machines by E. Michael Jones. He goes over the communist style architecture we have been dealing with lately.

Now the trick in some jurisdictions is that you can't sell you decades or more older house until you bring it up to current building codes. Like completely re-do all the plumbing pipes, electrical wiring in the walls, insulation, etc..

No clue what this guy is talking about. House I work on are 100 years old. We using the same type of lumber with better water proofing material these houses will last another 100 years easy

Yet if you go to Home Depot, even the HD employees will say "good luck" when they see you rifling through a dozen or more pieces of wood trying to find one that isn't a waterlogged, warped, dinged-up piece of junk.

Don't buy lumber at retail stores. Go to an actual lumber mill or yard.

50 years?

If your house was built by illegals--if your house was built within the last 30 years--it probably won't even make it half that long. McMansion buildings use the cheapest labor and the cheapest materials.

Unless theyre built by Hickory in which case youre having shit repaired from the day the place is handed over.

Up until the 70's, the houses in my town were built great. You could throw a kid at the wall and it wouldn't break (both, the kids were tougher back then)...

And now, my buddy bought a new build 10 years ago, and the roof leaked from the get-go. The whole neighborhood is breeder shacks that'll get torn down and turned into race tenement housing to store all the refugees.
