People will always want to immigrate, creating a demand floor.

Potentially a very low floor. If villages far away from major population centers die out, people may still want to immigrate, but those people may not be wealthy or willing to pay a decent sum.

For example, one euro plus the commitment to renovate for $25,000 buys you a house on Sardinia https://edition.cnn.com/travel/article/ollolai-italy-one-eur...
