In this Fairstay podcast episode, host Veronica True sits down with Bernard Darko, founder of Fairstay, to explore a quiet contradiction at the heart of today’s housing crisis.
On one side, students and young professionals are spending 50–60% of their income on small, poor-quality rentals, some working full-time yet unable to save, plan, or move forward. On the other, millions of homes are under-occupied, with homeowners living alone in spaces built for families, often struggling with maintenance, rising costs, and loneliness.
This conversation dives into:
Why renting has shifted from a temporary phase into a long-term trap
The hidden emotional and psychological costs of high rent
How housing pressure keeps an entire generation in survival mode
Why so many spare rooms sit empty despite record demand
How housing became purely transactional and what we lost as a result
Finally, Veronica and Bernard explore what a new housing system could look like, one that recognises value beyond money, rebuilds trust, and allows people to contribute skills, not just cash, in exchange for space.
This episode isn’t about quick fixes.
It’s about asking better questions and imagining a fairer way to live.
