I had never heard of a land trust being used to keep rates affordable - sounds like a very cool model!

    That’s a good thing, not building wealth. Housing is a commodity that everyone needs, it shouldn’t be an investment vehicle.

      The Swedish model is pretty much private apartments, but no option of renting them out at all. That makes in unattractive for investors and speculators.
