You don't see many empty houses in the UK because the cost so much here due to planning laws.

That's a surprise. Especially living up North SD.

If you go around Liverpool or Manchester, you'll find LOADS of empty houses. When I was working for Nestle and was out on the road, I would go to places like Burnley and Bolton, and there were places that were empty houses all along a street! No joke or exageration. I took a photo of it, I was that shocked.
