I hope that this means there's a followup article coming down the pipe! I have heard of a little bit of weirdness in commercial lending here in Sydney where prices are a fixed multiple of the current rent. That means that is sometimes makes sense to leave a property empty rather than leasing it out at a lower rate, which would devalue the asset pool. Somehow zero is better, who would've guessed.
