Ghost houses ghosted

Stuff reports:

A Government project aimed at filling empty ‘ghost homes’ will not be pursued after a $500,000 investigation and trial. …

Drawing on 2018 Census data, Wise Group wrote there were nearly 95,000 empty dwellings across Aotearoa, however a survey of owners of empty homes suggesting only 10% intentionally kept their properties empty.

So the true number of so called ghost houses is 9,500 in a country of five million people. Hardly significant.
