How to regulate the housing shortage

The housing crisis in Spain has intensified, becoming the primary concern for citizens and prompting early elections. Despite the government's efforts, including the establishment of a dedicated ministry, progress has been hindered by a lack of a progressive majority. The government has enacted numerous housing laws, yet issues of access and supply persist, with a significant deficit of homes projected to reach one million by 2028. Political parties propose various solutions, including new construction and regulatory changes. Experts suggest exploring public rental insurance and mobilizing existing housing while emphasizing the need for more public-private collaboration in construction.
