Hemlöshet är dyrt för samhället. Billigare att ge de hemlösa bostad. Se på Finland.

“In #Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment and counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
Make sure everyone understands this — It’s costing us far too much to NOT provide housing and supports to those who are homeless.
Hey homeowners!
Want to help destroy the US by hollowing out the middle class's ability to build wealth?
Easy, sell your home to a corporate criminal slumlord :)
Reddit thread: Experience selling home to Invitation Homes?
Don't worry, you morally bankrupt fools... No need to let your conscience get to you. After all the slumlord and its shareholders will make zillions of dollars!

The USA is being bought out. Good luck ever affording to buy a house!
Institutions Set To Own 40% Of Single-Family Rental Homes
Mortgage rates are higher than they were two years ago, and it doesn’t even feel as though the same opportunities are available. Why is that?
One reason is the dramatic change in home ownership. Institutions funded $2.5 billion in single-family-rental (SFR) acquisitions in 2021. They committed more than $60 billion in capital to buy SFRl homes in the past year, according to Yardi Matrix’s report.
Yardi Matrix estimates that by the close of this decade, institutions will own 40% of SFR units in the U.S.
Private equity funds are looking to capitalize on a market traditionally owned by individual owners or mom-and-pop companies. It's a niche market with high-yield returns that has been largely untapped by the major players.
‘Life changing’: the social #housing helping to cut #heating #bills in #Norwich
Built to #Passivhaus standards, Goldsmith Street’s low-energy approach offers a pioneering approach to the housing #crisis
Even on the coldest day of the winter so far, tenants of a pioneering housing scheme say they do not need to turn on their heating. A blast of Arctic air has brought a dusting of snow to the Goldsmith Street housing scheme in Norwich, but inside “it’s like summer”, according to Jayed Abdas Samad, 32, a Just Eat delivery rider.
At a time of health fears for more than 3 million households struggling to pay for heating, Jayed and his neighbours can provide a glimpse of how much better it would be if the UK’s homes were properly insulated and ventilated.
Number of #poor #people in #India fell by about 415 million between 2005-06 and 2019-21, a 'historic change': #UN
There have been visible investments in boosting access to sanitation, cooking fuel and electricity - indicators that have seen large improvements. A #policy emphasis on universal coverage - for example, in #education, #nutrition, #water, #sanitation, #employment and #housing - likely contributed to these results.

#Chile: Over Half a Million in the Streets Backing the 'I Approve' Vote
The new Constitution enshrines the rights of the Chilean population to universal public #health, free #education, and access to #housing and #water.
On Thusday, Santiago City was the scene for a multicolored show unprecedented in Chilean political history. Over 500,000 citizens took to the streets to take part in the closing ceremony of the "I Approve" campaign, the option defended by those who want a new #Constitution instead of the one drafted by the Augusto Pinochet dictatorship (1973-1990).
On Alameda Avenue, thousands of people incessantly cheered "Approve to Live Better", referring to the new constitutional text that will be submitted to a plebiscite on Sunday, a day in which over 15 million Chileans must vote.
"Breaking all the predictions of the polls, which hold that the "I Reject" vote will win on Sept. 4, the main avenues were filled with people, especially young people, who came out to express their hope for the ratification of the new text," Italian outlet Pressenza reported.
"Since I have the use of reason, things have been unfair and, when we have wanted to change something, they have told us that it is unconstitutional. Now we have the possibility of something new," said Camila Sandoval, a 24-year-old woman who attended with her grandmother.
