    I don’t think it’s unfair - the question in the headline is ambiguous and could be interpreted in two very different ways:

    1. What are the circumstances leading to homes becoming vacant?
    2. Why are local authorities not able to effectively intervene and get vacant properties back into use?

    The article deals exclusively in the latter, without addressing what the root causes are and how they affect which solutions might be effective.
