    Exactly. Not sure how slum lord flats are the solution here, when investment firms are sitting on millions of empty homes.

      how slum lord flats are the solution here

      they’re a solution for building owners who can’t find tenants to lease their office space to. they don’t actually care about the peasants who can’t find affordable homes

          instead of “tenants” i should have said “badly run businesses that nevertheless have tons of capital to blow on office space”

            Ah. Sorry. I misunderstood ‘tenants’ in terms of the civiz who would rent the tiny flat, and not as the businesses who would rent the entire floor.
