New homes are new homes. Whether they are for rent or for sale is largely immaterial. It's interesting that this is viewed in a negative light too.



If you are contending only the rich should be able to own homes, sure. Canada’s had a huge problem of rent vs own and has seen a huge cost of living increase. Building homes exclusively to rent is a net negative when looked at through the lens of home ownership. If, however, you just want companies busy building homes their employees will have to pay someone else to use for the rest of their lives, it’s okay to build just for renting.
