Or you know, you can work to fix the source of some of the existing issues. Like limit the number of single family dwellings a company or corporation can own. Hedge funds and banks shouldn't be able to hoard houses as real estate. Tax unoccupied housing at a higher rate, increasing based on vacancy time to incentivize usage instead of leaving them empty. Use that increased tax revenue to fund building public housing.
