  • The new set of measures from the Government against the Partido Popular's housing plan casts doubt on the president's intention to solve the housing crisis.
  • An effective solution to the scarcity and high prices of housing can be achieved through a broad agreement among different administrations to increase supply, especially in cities.
  • The polarizing approach of Pedro Sánchez does not give much hope for an imminent solution.
  • The proposals of the Partido Popular, such as liberalizing underutilized land and reducing bureaucratic procedures to accelerate the construction of affordable housing, are important points in the solution of the crisis.
  • The Government's document contains reasonable measures, like aid for young people and those having difficulty accessing housing, but its overall approach fails by trying to solve the crisis by expanding a public company.

Conclusion: It is essential to rethink the housing crisis solution strategy with a focus on increasing the supply of affordable housing and facilitating its construction, rather than polarizing the situation and jeopardizing its solution.
