Keep in mind that corporations are extremely focused on short term profits. Home builders would love to build every single person a home and make tons of money, even if it wasn’t a long term business. Add in the potential for convincing people to buy a new house every 20 years like cars and you’ve got a major profit center. Why aren’t they building these homes? How are they being stopped? Typically the thing that is stopping homes from being built is governmental restrictions on how many homes can be built (ie zoning laws).
