'Property died in Spain.'

MADRID, April 26 (OTR/PRESS) - The government and its partners are likely to pass the Housing Law in the Congress of Deputies on Thursday.

We already talked a few days ago about the disaster this will lead to. There will be less housing for rent and it will be more expensive. Restricting the price of rent, as we have already seen elsewhere in Europe and the US, means that failure is guaranteed for those who want to find a place to rent.

It will also be difficult to buy a home, as many owners who are now renting will put their homes on the market, and for young people especially, it will be difficult to find enough money to pay cash or get a mortgage.

Despite this, the government has chosen to ignore the experience gained in''other places, and not to talk to industry experts or owners' associations. It seems that they didn't think it was enough damage they would do with the text we already know, and they agreed on new amendments that would make things even more difficult.

In reality, this legislation is not trying to make life easier for owners by keeping them safe, but to make occupation, the illegal taking of property, a way of life.

How owners will be able to confirm these''circumstances? It's hard to say, but until a judge intervenes, no citizen has access to the occupiers' income or property.

In addition, tenants who will not pay rent will be seen as other types of occupiers, excellent, almost good, and should be treated with appropriate respect. This approach is so absurd that it is scary to have a government that tramples on the rights of landlords to reward the criminals and mafia who will now reign with impunity.

Private ownership is dead in Spain thanks to Sanchez, who by the way has not built a single public housing project since he became president and hopes citizens will do the social work that failed''the most progressive government in history.
