You hit the nail on the head here. The simplest way to solve this problem is a stepped increase in property taxes for home which are not the primary residence.

You hit the nail on the head here. The simplest way to solve this problem is a stepped increase in property taxes for home which are not the primary residence. Just as an example: Assume a baseline property tax level of say, 6%. Primary residence - 2% discount to 4% Non-primary residence, in same region (county/city) as primary = 6% Non-primary residence, not in same region as primary = increase 2% to 8% Non-primary residence owned by a corporate entity rather than a citizen = increase 4% to 10%. You do that, it should make doing things like this much harder. https://www.cnbc.com/2023/02/21/how-wall-street-bought-single-family-homes-and-put-them-up-for-rent.html https://www.cnbc.com/2023/02/21/how-wall-street-bought-singl...
