[–] andrewta@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago (1 child) Technically true but want to guess how many realtors buy a house , homestead the place for a couple of years then sell it? Hint: the number is a lot higher then people might think. There are a lot of ways to get around problems just by thinking outside of the box. Might it slow down the problem? Maybe. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Stumblinbear@pawb.social 7 points 3 years ago* So they're buying a new house every few years and selling the old one? If they have only one house at a time, I don't really care much. The issue is when billion dollar corporations buy up single family homes to rent out, not an individual buying a house to live in and sell it in a few years permalink fedilink source parent
