“200 families are on the brink of eviction in Santa Cruz” | radio_club_tenerife | Present

“The vulture funds have taken over a large part of the real estate market”, this is how blunt the activist Eloy Cuadra has shown in the face of the housing problem that the Canary Islands are going through.

Cuadra has pointed out in the SER that many families in precarious situations, “with grandparents and minors” are on the verge of eviction and all despite the moratorium due to the state of alarm – extended until the beginning of August. Only in Santa Cruz de Tenerife there are 200 families at risk of eviction, according to the calculations of the different organizations that try to respond to this problem.

As Caritas announced in Hoy por Hoy La Portada, in Tenerife there are around 2,000 people in severe residential exclusion -according to the latest report by the NGO itself-, a figure that for Cuadra is only the tip of the iceberg.

“It is necessary to take different measures, more daring” and in line with what has been seen in other autonomous communities – such as the Balearic Islands and Valencia – to solve a major problem in the Islands, Cuadra stressed.
