Summary
Edinburgh’s council is spending $1.6 billion to buy luxury homes—some worth $500K—then rent them out for just $700/month, effectively handing out subsidized luxury housing to tenants while working families face $2,500/month mortgages and $50K deposits. Is this fair when homeownership demands taxed income close to $70K, while tenants get free luxury for life? Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
