My view is that you can own more than one home but with progressive property taxes and no corporation should be able to own a house, or even a property. I’m in two minds about properties they inhabit.
No residential property I assume? I guess apartments would need some new form of owning entity. In Sweden we have “bostadsrättsförening” which is basically an organization where your personal say is proportional to how much you own (i.e. how large your apartment compared to the total). Of course it has its drawbacks, especially if there is no resident that actually understands how to handle economy and plan maintenance that has to be a joint effort. Or if you have someone that embezzles.
An apartment-building owner WHO LIVES IN the building year-around might be in accord. (My own GG-ma ran a boarding-home for income after her husband died.)
“needs discussion” because you didn’t really think anything through, you just shout slogans on “how it would work” without any bearing on reality or the current housing situation.
You are strawmanning right now. I didn’t say “you don’t have an answer to one question”. I said “you don’t have any answers, and the answers you have wouldn’t work in the real world”. “We will need to discuss” in this comment was exactly that - no idea what to do, no idea on any ramifications, just “we got to do something!” with zero knowledge on the subject.
So no vacation homes at all?
And what constitutes an individual? A family unit? Or can you own two houses when you’re married, one per adult?

Needs discussion. I’m more concerned for kids -never being able- to buy a home. “Owner-built”, no problem.

What kind of a weird stance is: If you don’t have all the answers the moment we talk about something your point is invalid.
“I don’t know, we will need to discuss” is a valid answer to follow up questions.
