Additional Information

Speculators, both domestic and foreign, are the cause of the housing crisis in the UK. There's no shortage of houses, they are simply stock piled by investors as a long term investments, often kept empty.

If people want to speculate on property there are many options Inc retail, commercial, industrial, hospitality etc.

It's wrong that young people can't buy a house because someone else has two.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or House of Commons is responsible for.

The Government is not responsible for how many properties a person owns. It is up to homeowners to decide who to sell their home to.
