I would like some houses without people. Having a little surplus is usually a good thing. So like if some houses become unlivable, we have houses for the suddenly unhoused people.

But then the house will be lonely :(

Run it as a pet café. In the above-mentioned emergency, people can move in, but they have to foster the pets.

That part of things could be aimed a China. They have something like double the amount of housing their population needs. To someone in a country with out of control housing prices, that might sound like a good problem to have, but it's still wasteful.
