Dichotomous conceptualization in terms of homeownership and rental housing led to inefficient local housing marketplaces and affordability issues. The rationally evolving economic concept of local housing marketplaces is to financially leverage every family and stimulate investing in landed properties for decent homes.

Social change to rational conceptualization of local housing marketplace would help resolve affordability issues. Then, complementary …
