So the obvious effect of expensive housing is that people often spend a lot of their money on renting or buying their home, leaving them with less money to spend on other things, especially if they live in and around the Western world’s most wealthy cities. And the problem is getting worse.

Increased housing regulations = less new builds = more expensive housing = less consumer spending.
