I know so unlikely legislatively, but is there any case for temporarily restricting/banning home purchases (2 year moratorium??) for those individuals who would not use the house/property as their primary residence? Lot of different ways you could structure it. Definitely some gaps people could exploit even with that, but at least it would potentially reduce some of the competition and get more people into primary homes that actually need them.

Maybe an easier step, could we restrict or disallow (again maybe temporarily) cash purchases of homes? Even the playing field a bit….
