I absolutely despise all the real estate billboards. They should be outlawed in a housing crisis (photo Allison Witt) (lemmy.world)

I hope it rots on the market for years.

I don't know how we can even ethically offer people immigration anymore. Like sure come to Canada but we have nowhere for you to live but in a shelter? How is that fair? Open Homes Hamilton is bursting at the seams with immigrants needing homes. It's unreal.

Yo same thing for me. A house on the same block just got put up for rent for 2,700 a month.

It's 2k Sq feet and built in the 80s and doesn't have a lawn. I bought my similar house for 240k 3 years ago.

So I'm praying it stays empty forever and the owner gets foreclosed so it gets resold for a decent price to someone who wants to live in it.

It's absolutely absurd. For Hamilton! It's cruddy here. I love the community but it's gross.
