Add one more. Ridiculous building standards pushing building cost over the roof. Even if land is free, new house is way to expensive for many to afford.

Maybe labour costing way too much nowadays, building suppliers making a killing on materials

So the people building homes should be paid less? What if they want to own a home themselves? That shits expensive!
