China's Unfinished Apartments: A Symbol of Broken Dreams and Shattered Families

Home buyers in China's Shaanxi province are living in unfinished apartments, facing dire living conditions without basic amenities such as water, heating, or electricity. These "rotting" homes have become more common during a property slump that has bankrupted developers and left others heavily indebted. Despite protests and promises from authorities, little progress has been made in resolving the issue. The situation has left many families devastated, with their life savings spent on unfinished properties and dreams of a stable home shattered.
