My hot take, you shouldn’t be allowed to rent out single family homes under 2k sqft. Larger homes and multi family buildings are fair game for real estate investors. Lots of holes in my opinion. Maybe it would incentivize building more apartments. Are homes under 2k sqft being built anymore?
This would incentivize only building houses that are 2,001 ft² or larger, so they can rent them.
my hot take is that no one should own more than one house
There should always be a rental market of all sizes.
I was thinking you should be capped at the number of residential properties you own regardless of size.
Maybe increase property tax rate of subsequent properties by a multiplier?
Second property, additional 10%, third property 15%, and so on. Maybe 10, than 20, then 30, etc... Whatever drives down ownership and home costs.
