    And all the new apartments are 99% studio/bedsits.

    You need something from a hundred years ago if you want to raise a family in a high density area

      Yeah, I’m not one to really keep up with what’s on the market, but I don’t think I’ve ever really seen many 3-4 bedroom apartments outside of college towns.

        I travel a bit with extended family and we stay in multi-room serviced apartments when we go to cities

        They’re almost universally old buildings

        The main thing I hear from friends and family looking for a home is “I couldn’t live in a flat, we need three bedrooms”. That stuff isn’t being built by the builders who are looking for maximum number of residences for minimum cost
