Channel 4 documentary explores extreme methods to bypass UK housing crisis

Presenter Oobah Butler investigates unconventional housing solutions with two first-time buyers in a satirical documentary.

• The documentary "How to Trick Your Way onto the Property Ladder" streams on Channel 4, featuring Butler, Mohammed, and Insaf testing housing workarounds.
• Butler's segment on graveyard plots shows they cost 200 times less than average London rent but require a death certificate.
• The Duchy of Lancaster collects assets from people in northwest England who die intestate without known next of kin, raising tens of millions of pounds.
• Butler stated there is "no quick hack or magic loophole" to unlock the housing market, which he said "bakes in inequality by design."
