이재명 대통령이 21일 "다주택·임대사업 압박 시 전·월세 부족으로 서민 주거 불안이 심화된다는 주장은 집값 상승·전·월세 부족 주 원인인 다주택·주택임대사업을 비호하는 기적의 논리"라고 주장했다.
이 대통령은 이날 밤 엑스(X·구 트위터)에 국민의힘의 ‘다주택자 규제 시 임대 공급 위축·전월세 불안이 재연되면 그 책임은 대통령에게 있다’는 취지 논평 기사를 공유하며 "다주택자·임대사업자가 매각을 통해 다주택을 해소하면 전·월세 매물이 줄어 서민 주거가 악화될까 걱정되신다구요?"라며 이같이 주장했다.
그러면서 "다주택자·임대사업자가 집을 팔면 전·월세 공급도 줄겠지만 그만큼 무주택자 즉 전·월세 수요도 줄어든다"며 "공급만큼 수요도 동시에 줄어드는데 전·월세 공급 축소만 부각하는 건 이상하다"고 했다.
또 "오히려 주택 매매시장에 매물이 증가함으로써 집값이 안정되고 전·월세가도 안정된다는 게 훨씬 더 논리적"이라며 "현 상태서 대규모 추가 특혜를 줘 주택임대사업자·다주택자가 대폭 늘어나면 집값이 오를까 내릴까 생각해보면 답은 간단하다"고 했다.
이어 "더 나은 세상을 향한 대도약과 더불어 비정상의 정상화는 새 나라를 만들기 위해 정부가 추진하는 필생 과제"라며 "불법·편법·특혜·부조리 등 온갖 비정상을 통해 소수가 부당한 이익을 취하고 힘없는 다수가 그만큼 손해 보는 일이 계속되는 한 국가 발전·국민행복공동체 건설은 공염불"이라고 했다.
더불어 "수많은 정상화 과제 중 으뜸은 부동산 투기 청산"이라며 "부동산 투기 근절을 통한 정상 국가로의 복귀는 결코 포기할 수 없는 중대 국가과제"라고 덧붙였다.

President Lee Jae-myung: "Rental and deposit shortages due to multiple-home regulations? The logic behind the miracle of protecting multiple-homeownership."
X (X, former Twitter) shared an article titled "If the regulation of multiple homeowners leads to a decrease in rental supply and a resurgence of jeonse and monthly rent instability, the responsibility lies with the president." "If multiple homeowners and rental business operators sell their homes, the jeonse and monthly rent supply will decrease, but the demand for jeonse and monthly rent will also decrease by that amount."

President Lee Jae-myung asserted on the 21st, "The argument that pressure on multiple housing and rental businesses will exacerbate housing insecurity for the working class due to a shortage of jeonse (rental deposits) and monthly rents is a miraculous logic that protects the multi-homeownership and rental housing businesses, the primary causes of rising housing prices and jeonse (rental deposits) and monthly rents."
That evening, President Lee shared an op-ed article from the People Power Party on X (formerly Twitter) titled, "If regulations on multiple homeowners lead to a decline in rental supply and a resurgence of jeonse (rental deposits) and monthly rent instability, the President will be held responsible." He asked, "Are you worried that if multiple homeowners and rental businesses sell their properties to resolve their multiple housing issues, there will be a decrease in jeonse (rental deposits) and monthly rents, worsening the housing situation for the working class?"
He added, "If multiple homeowners and rental businesses sell their homes, the jeonse (rental deposits) supply will decrease, but so will the demand for jeonse (rental deposits) from those without homes. Demand will decrease as much as supply, so it's absurd to only highlight the reduction in jeonse (rental deposits) and monthly rents."
He also said, "It's far more logical that an increase in the housing market will stabilize housing prices and jeonse (deposit) and monthly rents." He added, "If we consider whether housing prices will rise or fall if large-scale additional preferential treatment is provided under the current circumstances, significantly increasing the number of housing rental businesses and multiple homeowners, the answer is simple."
He continued, "Along with a great leap forward toward a better world, normalizing the abnormal is a lifelong task pursued by the government to build a new nation." He added, "As long as a minority continues to profit unfairly through illegal means, expedient practices, preferential treatment, and absurdities, while the powerless majority suffers the same, national development and the construction of a community of national happiness are empty promises."
He added, "Among the numerous normalization tasks, the most crucial is the elimination of real estate speculation. Eradicating real estate speculation and returning to a normal state is a critical national task that cannot be abandoned."
