Douglas East MHK Joney Faragher says a shortage of properties is hindering aims to grow the Manx population, but without more people there isn't enough interest from investors.
A report into the Island's housing needs is due to be received in Tynwald this month, and the Council of Ministers will be asked to put forward a response by October.
