HOUSES SHOULD NOT BE INVESTMENTS. They are an essential need and we have many people with no homes.

The alternative is stop treating them like investments. An owner should live in the house for some reasonable portion of the year. Crucially, this means corporations wouldn't be able to purchase homes. If you do that, housing prices would stabilize to much more reasonable, attainable levels.
