Spanish housing policy, we are told, has not undergone many important changes over the last sixty years.
It is here said to be marked by its being totally sales orientated subject to an insufficient rental offer and a
lack of attention as to land policy at the municipal level. Its errors of interpretation of the process on which
it bears are seen to be a reiterative confusing of social housing policy with the building industry as such,
family investment ‘futures’ projections, urban development and the dynamics of the economy and, taken
together, all this has led to policy failure. A change of modal approach is here proposed in which subsidized
housing would be removed from the real estate market. An increase and diversification in the offer of housing
for renting is recommended so that this might become the fulcrum of public intervention. Any fresh housing
policy must, it is felt, be based on a greater and more rigorous fund of information that would encompass
both municipal and patrimonial land, the total amount of available housing existing and, most especially,
the mass of subsidized housing on offer. Likewise, it must be focused in upon present and future housing
necessities in local areas. In all this the territorial and social character of housing rather than its brute
economic real estate entity should ever be kept in mind.
