Homes shouldn't be an investment vehicle. Buying and selling residences like commodities is what creates a market full of shitty mcmansions on postage stamp properties with granite countertops and no insulation.

If we rnded corporate investment in residential property, even just single family homes, you'd see property values plummet. That would suck for the people who have been treating their house like a retirement plan, but it would be best for literally everyone else who will ever live.
