Rejected petition There should be a cap on houses prices that are unliveable.

There are so many houses that are unliveable, such as full of mould, no bathroom or kitchen trying to sell for high prices such as £500,000. There should be a cap on houses that fall into this category. People shouldn’t have to buy a house for £500k and then spend over £200k fixing it up.
