    Government-owned apartments don’t need to have a profit-focus, and can instead have a service-focus.

    You’ll still be paying continuously for a condominium - there are plenty of things related to living in one of those that aren’t free. Having an ownership-focused model of housing and incentivizing as such comes with a whole host of undesirable problems as well, so it’s not strictly speaking a silver bullet. That being said, housing coops can under the right circumstances be a force for good.
