>Home ownership among young families has plummeted across every corner of Britain over the past 35 years, according to a devastating inquiry into the housing crisis facing millennials.
>Ownership among 25- to 34-year-olds has plummeted in Greater Manchester from 53% in 1984 to 26% last year. It has fallen from 54% to 25% in south Yorkshire, from 45% to 20% in the West Midlands, from 50% to 28% in Wales and from 55% to 27% in the south-east. In outer London, the proportion has collapsed from 53% to just 16%. Out of 22 regions analysed by the commission, in only one – Strathclyde in Scotland – has home ownership among the young remained stable. It stood at 32% in 1984 and 33% last year, having peaked at 45% in 2002.
Why aren't boomers selling for less? Why isn't the goverment zoning more residential zones? Why are councils stopping appartment complexes from being built? Hrmmmmmm
Camden Sullivan
why are you importing a million "Asians" and Africans a year then you very silly people
It's not that we are importing them at this point. The Muslim population of Britain doubles every decade now, but it's largely the result of their high fertility rate.
Nolan Sullivan
Really? Is this the tactic? "We're going to spam pol periodically with the EXACT SAME story in an effort to shame millennials into the mortgage-jew"
WE KNOW THE SCAM. WE HAVE THE FUCKING INTERNET. WE SPOTTED THE ENTIRE BANKING SYSTEM GETTING BAILD OUT. WE KNOW WHAT FIAT CURRENCY IS. WE KNOW.
Millenials rightly do not trust this rigged system, and theres nothing who ever is making these threads can do.

May get something at some point, but it's a big investment and many factors are to be taken into consideration. Also you'll need a hunk of cash to start it all. That plus prices for room in growing cities have skyrocketeted over the last couple of years - partially due to people moving there and partially due to the artificial reduction of the existing property which i attribute to mosty professional investors. Even with a good wage you're gonna have to spend 50% of your wage on it for more or less 30 years - and thus are bound to the property. There's no moving away from that place ever, which is generally speaking not a problem in big cities, but i guess sometimes it's nice to change the environment. Big cities are expensive, i think anything in the surrounding area with a good connection to the inner city is a better choice, but i just began looking.

need more immigrants and pakis, clearly
Bentley Mitchell
Why not? We're a small island with a massively growing population, who care less and less about nature and who prefer living in high-density urban areas with access to high-speed internet, retail parks and consumer technology. If people want to experience nature in 2018, why not hop on a flight and visit the Alps, or northern Norway, or some forest in Germany. It's cheaper than ever to book a return flight and get your epic nature kick before returning to Britain to get on with your everyday life.
Why don't Germans typically own their own homes? It's pretty much the only nation in Western Europe where home ownership isn't a priority.

>Big cities are expensive, i think anything in the surrounding area with a good connection to the inner city is a better choice, but i just began looking. In my city, space around the city is running out too. White flight is in full effect because of all the imported shitskins and the entire city is becoming a low/high class system with no middle class. Anyone who didnt get out earlier or is just unable to afford these homes is basically getting fucked.
This wouldnt be an issue if the costs of living hadnt exploded like it did, if China wasnt allowed to buy up all the fucking real-estate or the jews imported all these fucking foreigners.
Jose Russell
I can’t afford it.
My shitty little 3 bedroom town house costs 60k
It has fucking plywood walls and constantly has problems but the fucking boomer landlord won’t let me rent to buy because he’s an old kike. So nearly half my wage goes on rent alone.
I’m trying to move up in the company I’m in but the wage is bad but it’s the best around my town
David Cook
How about we make newbuild homes smaller, so more can be built?
Do you think that's a good strategy, going forward?
Also I don't get it, are you the owner or a tenant?
Thomas Sullivan
> waah I can't have everything I want as soon as I want it!
Tough shit! Get saving, get creative, move out of the city, live at home for a while, if it's really that bad move abroad for a brighter future. It's never been easier.

Tenants, we live in the north west of England. It’s dreadful pakis are everywhere

Be forced to leave because a future in your own country has been denied because of compromised kid diddlers in your "elected" government. No, maybe Britons need to wake the fuck up beyond the war criminal Churchill circle jerking and realize a certain someone was fucking right and you still have a chance to save your country if you're willing to make some tough choices.
Nevermind, I forgot footy is more important to you rejects.

Chinese investors could solve that issue no problem, but Australia and Canada are their first choices for investment unfortunately. How can we entice them to Britain?
Ryder Cook
Get rid of your Eurabia problem that the Chinese aren't going to fucking deal with?
Jordan Rivera
How about we build smaller houses with smaller rooms Jow Forums?
I've been thinking and reading about it myself. For one part because it's fucking expensive. You can't build a regular house below half a million, and that typically does not include the ground you put it on. I guess much of this comes down to german culture dictating that your house is the center of your life, and therefore it's gotta look neat. Because of that a lot of rules and regularions were established on a local level which lay down how you're supposed to build your house in order to fit into the neighborhood. If you're young you can't just build some sort of shack somewhere to save out on the rent for a couple of years. Another issue is that our property market is opaque as fuck. You'll have to google through an array of websites, read the newspaper, do own calculations and ask at an array of companies in order to figure out the prices for a certain type of building or apartment in an area. I've heard the swedes have a very neat system operated by the state which operates this. And finally: Since the entire investment isn't expensive enought itself we have additional fees for a long list of people who open their hands if you buy something appears. (7% for the broker, notary costs, 3,5% - 6,5% taxes for buying ground, optionally: expert evaluation) This is also reduced a lot in sweden. In that sense we could learn a bit from them. It's also the reason why we can't do it like the netherlandish people - who as how i've read - averagely buy and sell three apartments over their live times.
But i'm only at the beginning of my research.
Owen Miller
Have they tried importing more migrants??????
Carter Fisher
your welcome to migrate here brits.
Parker Cook
No, it will deplete the environment even further and fill small towns with more nigs and foreigners.
Where my nan lives they want to put in 8000 new houses, but there aren't 8000 homeless locals looking for homes.
Too many damn people in south east already
Landon Reed
How about we deport the millions of non-ethnic British who are taking up council houses and saturating the market.
Jose Flores
Good post, thanks.
Isn't there any market initiative to make house-hunting easier? Surely if there's a demand for an easier process some company could make a profit by providing a simpler service?

Bit of a controversial opinion there mate. You won't get elected on a ticket like that, how will you win the growing BAME vote?

What if they imported millions of people from the 3rd world? Maybe that would fix their ailing economy?
Ethan King
>BAME vote?
Twenty grand each to fuck off? Poor impulse control and that, might just go for it.
Justin Hernandez
Yes. I would expand the green belt and prosecute heavily anyone who dares to touch it. Newts and bats before nigs and paks.
GOOD LORD these numbers are absolutely god awful. What the fuck is wrong with your millennials? Tell your boomer parents to sell the houses at a cheaper price or face homelessness.
Charles Young
I don't get it, why not just build apartment buildings? Works for highly populated places like NYC
Aiden Collins
There's only one solution. A final solution, if you will.
Dylan Sanders
The most straight forward method would be using websites specializing on property sales. You typically can create an application for your dream house / property / apartment which costs money but saves you time. I personally search through these websites by hand and add the gathered information i get to a map on my local google earth.

>Why not? Too expensive. After the permanent bank bailout monetary system, the purhasing power of the currency will NEVER have enough power to purchase anything let alone property. We are there now. Millennnials cant afford housing NOW
unfortunately I can’t afford a car, so I’m stuck here.
The myth perpetrated by boomers of “hard work earns you more” is a fucking lie
Gavin Evans
Yeah, but that won't happen til you are 50. So you have to deal with landlords and shitty rental quality buildings you can't do anything with. Also the rent keeps rising, unlike a mortgage. So you are still pretty much fucked.

By what age do you hope to own a home of your own lads?
In the UK, you 'lease' your house from the Queen for 99 years. There is no 'home ownership' as we know it in the US. That is the big dif...citizen vs. subject. Maybe more of the younger generation are figuring out what a scam it is to lease a house.
Dominic Martinez
buy now ! buy anything and youll be fine in twenty years

>In the UK, you 'lease' your house from the Queen for 99 years. There is no 'home ownership' as we know it in the US.
Do you lot deliberately misunderstand, or are you just thick?
>One major community in Britain is not sharing in the current bonanza of personal wealth brought about by home ownership.
>These are those of Britain's two and a half million Muslims who avoid property purchase because Islamic law - sharia - forbids them from paying interest.
The only people (-35) who can afford to buy in a city in the UK are people who's parents can lend them a 60k ish deposit. this is normally achieved by their parents remortgaging their home

Gabriel Peterson
Calculating ages isn't enough, give us statistics on ownership of 25 to 34 year olds who aren't tied to corporations to do their bidding by purchasing housing, then you will see nobody owns a home.
Wyatt Martin
I guess I was thick...I just researched it and the leasholds can last up to 999 years, and h ave become a seriously corrupt scheme nowadays, with the 'freeholder' charging the difference of the value out of nowhere. They are considering changing the term to 'commonhold', making it more like condos here in the US. Even the freehold idea is new in the UK, and it is rife with corruption and misinterpretation. And yes, you are still a subject, not a citizen.
