Historically a lot of property was forcefully removed from their owners, and it was such a success that it became one of the foundations of modern societies. Slaves for instance were property until societies decided that human rights take precedent to property rights. Also laws don't govern natural order, just how societies of humans want to function, so if they decide they want to prioritize one over the other it's their right. With all that in mind, I can definitely see the world where people's right to have a roof over their head is more important than someone's right to extract rent from multiple properties. Not sure what's the benefit for the whole society to have people not doing anything productive anyway. As far as I can tell, people living in their homes are protected and anybody trespassing will be promptly evicted, so the "little guy" or "normal people" are covered.
