happening in cape town right
0:13
as is in cape town yeah right so that that that shows you that more people have been born they're not making any new land the cost the input cost of buildings are tied to inflation.

So that means that if those input costs are going up, ultimately the finished product of the house is going to be much more expensive.

And this is a real dilemma.
0:38
And we are in a better space now that mobility has been solved by e-hailing services.
0:48
So you don't always have to own a car from the time you get your first job.
0:54
But what has never been solved is the fact that the price of property will continue to go up.
1:05
How do we get in touch with you there at Mortgage Market, Tim? Please
23:27
What are we doing about that space?
23:30
Yeah, I think it starts with a, we can never emphasize the importance of the awareness and the education, right? And even to the extent of forming a force to want to build in a, we'll call it, set-in.
23:52
To say, if you believe that the only value you are going to get out of this dwelling is the utility value, then sure, that makes sense.
24:01
And you can make that conscious decision.
24:03
But don't conflate that decision with a fit and proper property that has utility value because you would live in it and enjoy the use of it.
24:18
Economic value.
24:20
because you can rent it out and generate an income from it.
29:15
Why has that not happened?
