Interesting consideration. However, you ignore the essential point in your consideration: namely the massively rising rents – so the owner’s own loan installment remains the same. In the scenario you sketched, you say that the disposable income portion gets smaller and smaller (for the owner). How much worse off are the tenants then, if the rent increases by 20% every three years?I consider the idea that something deflates away with a mortgage loan to be a very bold thesis.
On the one hand, incomes always lag behind inflation. When the price of bread or potatoes doubles, as has happened, my salary is halved at that moment. I only get half as much for my money. Living costs, vacations, vehicles, simply everything becomes significantly more expensive and I have less money available. Of course, my loan installment remains the same.
Later salary increases no longer catch up with the rising costs. On the contrary. The disposable income portion becomes smaller and smaller. The loan installments then weigh even more heavily on the household budget. What exactly deflates away there?
If prices ever fall again, then we are talking about deflation. But then the property value also decreases, while the loan remains the same.
