Under Japan’s tax policies, some owners often find it cheaper to retain the home than to demolish it for redevelopment.

And even if owners want to sell, they may have trouble finding buyers, said Hall, from Kanda University.

government seizing unused houses would be authoritarian

Government buying unused houses at a market price is also authoritarian

Why would buying be authoritarian? Wouldn't that be a great way to create affordable social housing?
