Those are the speculative houses xi is arguing against here. China doesn't have involuntary homeless, that's mainly why 'ghost' cities were built. Now the private housing market is fucked right now, and there's a good chance there will never be privately built homes again in China. But that has nothing to do with the housing supply, and does not affect homeownership or housing rates
