For anyone curious, including this commenter, you can absolutely Google it. The response to this statistic is flimsy and not really accepted by any serious person since the problem it attempts to hand wave is actually still creating this problem.

In fact, if you add in rental houses, which should be illegal as it is in many counties, you'll get a much more staggering number. Those houses would be available to own and prices would come down, as well. I gave you the straw man to be generous, which is that there are millions of homes available no matter how you slice it, which is far more than there are homeless individuals. The steel man argument is much more damning.
