Thats not being ignored, we all acknowledge that more houses need to be built, price bubbles aren't good etc...but the fact (that you ignored in my post) remains: Private rents are very closely alligned to the other rents being charged in an area which in turn are spookily closely aligned to house prices, mortgage rates, tax rates etc. It's almost as if rents are dictated by external financial forces, not simply landlords whims
