As I pointed out, the properties bought purely for investment are high-end ones, so no real impact on availability. People are living in the social housing that was sold off, so again no impact. Enough are being built, but you can't let in this many people for there not to be a problem. Especially when so many of them make no real contribution to the country, apart from the crime rates and benefits bill.
