What are the advantages and disadvantages of low-rent housing?

Low-rent housing generally has two forms: after the construction is funded by the government, it is distributed to needy households at low rent; The government gives rent subsidies to poor families who rent social housing.

Benefits: Ordinary houses built by the state and local governments to solve the housing difficulties of urban low-income families have the nature of social welfare and housing social security.

Disadvantages: the access mechanism of low-rent housing is not perfect; The exit mechanism of low-rent housing must be scientifically designed to avoid people seeking improper benefits from it; The coverage rate of security objects is low, and the urban-rural integration security system is lacking.

Simply put, there are two ways for the government to strengthen the protection of low-rent housing, one is to protect the demand side, and the other is to protect the supply side. The demand side of security is to subsidize the low-rent housing security object determined by the government, but its effective premise should be that there are enough sources of rent, otherwise, in the case of insufficient supply of housing, the house price and rent will rise, and even the government will have to raise the subsidy standard again.

Therefore, in the current situation of increasing rigid demand for real estate, all localities should generally adopt government intervention to ensure supply. In ensuring the supply of suppliers, it is mainly based on the rent of physical distribution.
