People who own second and third homes aren't even the issue. It's mega corps that literally own tens of thousands of homes each. A better way to go about it is to just progressively tax people more per home. That second home gets taxed at the same rate but any home after is taxed way way way more. If someone can still afford it then that's fine, just more tax money coming in. That and don't let corps own rental properties.
So what is your proposal? If anyone doesn't get any second houses how it will help other people? Let's say it will make houses cheaper. How is it any good? Lot's of building companies will go bankrupt in days after announcing such law. Can you imagine what type of chain reaction it will start? Also, people can easily need second homes. 1- For where your work is at. 2- For where your homecity is at. 3- For where you are spending your holidays at. It's nice of you to be thoughtful of poor people/people in need but socialist dreams are just what they are. Dreams. It's much easier and logical to make another cake then trying to split a small cake to hundreds of pieces equally.
No one gets a second home until everyone has their first.

Nope, I said what I said. No one needs a second home. Lots of people need a first.

It helps other people because more units available leads to dropping prices.
I don't think there is any data to back that up.
1st year econ says something supply demand curve something something price. But that's not true in practice
