Today, we're diving into a topic that's got everyone talking: rent pressure zones, or RPZs. Are these zones really putting a squeeze on housing supply, or is there more to the story? Grab a comfy seat, because we're peeling back the layers on a fascinating article by Michael Byrne, who challenges the idea that RPZs are the villains in our housing saga.

I've got loads of insights about how these rent caps might not be the sole culprits, with interest rates and construction costs playing major roles too. Plus, I'm chatting about how this all affects not just renters but homeowners and first-time buyers.
