  2. Greece is among the EU countries where housing carries a relatively low weight in the CPI basket, at around 12%.🇬🇷

    Unlike countries such as Sweden, the Netherlands, or Ireland, Greece does not include a large owner-occupied housing component.

    This means housing inflation has a smaller direct effect on headline CPI, even when housing affordability deteriorates.

  3. Weight of Housing Components in CPI across a sample of economies.
    (IMF World Economic Outlook, October 2026)

    Housing takes a very different share of CPI baskets across economies, from under 10% to about 40%.

    In countries where rents and owner-equivalent imputed rents are a large component, this can work against the disinflationary effects of monetary tightening after cost-of-living crises.

  11. "A recent poll published in elDiario.es showed 73 percent support for a general strike, 58 percent support for the main encampment in Madrid, and that 40 percent of people would be prepared to engage in a rent strike."

    The Spanish are having a general strike in November to demand a 50% reduction in rents, a ban on evictions, and the expropriation of empty properties.

    Anywhere else you can think of that might need to do that?

  13. EU building permits new dwellings, May 2022 – May 2026

    EU Building Permits for New Dwellings Show Signs of Stabilisation

    EU residential building permits appear to have stabilised after a sharp downturn between 2022 and 2024.

    While permit issuance recovered during 2025, momentum has slowed in recent months, suggesting that a stronger housing construction rebound is still some way off.

  16. Over the past decade, rents in Spain have almost doubled, while wages have not. Rent is estimated to constitute almost 99% of a young (under 30) person's salary.

    Citizens have had enough. The eviction of an 87 year old pensioner, nicknamed Maricarmen, has become a tipping point. Folks took to the streets demanding action on housing.

    So the Prime Minister called a snap election.

  24. I have to agree @MsDropbear42
    Sadly, the planet isn't getting any bigger, but population keeps growing.

    The future is probably archologies. Each citizen-unit is allocated 3 cubic metres. They slide in feet-first.
