    The issue is that we used to, up until 2007, have the highest levels of home ownership in Europe with virtually everyone else living in social housing. So this is actually an age thing with older people still having massive levels and younger people lower.

    Also culturally housing ownership is seen as the sign of success and maturity so renters are seen as lesser people and failures in our culture. We are not European on housing culturally we are Anglosphere and that’s why renters are viewed as lesser

  2. And the constant rubbish of oul ones saying “sure most of Europe don’t own a home only rent”

    They don’t own the housing.

    They live in owner-occupied housing, which is very different. So a 35 year old who can’t move out because of rental costs is in the 69.4%.

    Everyone who lives with their parents or other family members are considered owner occupied in this stat so it’s a false comparison. In most rental societies kids move out at 18 and never come back. Stockholm for example have 50% of the population living alone. Cheap 1 bed studios etc is the norm in the other European cities

    Still living at home with your parents is classed as owning your own home here ridiculous way to fiddle the numbers

  6. What is the minimum level of crime necessary in an area for rents to begin to fall?

    Almost 40y and inherited some land with a run down house in croatian capital city Zagreb, which I refurbished into a 30m2 studio with a 30m2 basement for roughly 35k euro.

    And can confirm that in ex communist countries a lot of people inherited property that was built by the communists to house the workers, soldiers, scientists and distributed by them on social grounds and later the Croatian state for war contributions.

    My father got his apartment from being active in the independence army since the start, that my sister will inherit.

    Now new builds are popping up everywhere and Croatia is losing population so a lot of people will inherit property when their parents or grandparents die and sell or live in them.
    New generations have some issues if they don’t have any inheritance or if the family is too big so they have to split a property into too many parts. So no one keeps it. But luckily there are properties in rural areas that cost around 10k euro with more than basic amenities. But it’s in the middle of nowhere and no work.

    The graph is pointless if it doesn’t show adults who are living in their parents house as renting. They are technically lodgers as well.

  9. Germans typically stay 11 years in rented homes on average, compared with 2.5 years. In Germany, most of the “owned” houses are run by public housing companies. The standards of housing are extremely high-so renting is seen as good an option as owning. This is not the case in Ireland.

    Not only are adults living at home counted as owner occupied so are people renting off a live in landlord in a house share

    In the rest of Europe people live alone when single and not in house shares.

    Pretty crazy stats. If we done my area in Dublin it’d be reversed for sure.

  12. Worth noting that renting in the likes of Finland/Germany/Netherlands are far more secure than us. Typically always a long term arrangement where the property is unfurnished, and includes an unfurnished kitchen.

    While it’s a big upfront cost to furnish, it feels far more like your own space/home.
