CMV: Instead of companies buying properties and flipping them, the govt. should buy them and section 8 them.

 So instead of companies like Zillow and open door buying all of these properties and fixing them up a bit and flipping them, I think the government should participate in this program equally if not more, and buy all of these properties and section 8 them. So then poor people or people in need could have opportunities to be in homes. I also think primarily that these should be in really good upper class neighborhoods with really good school systems, to give those people an opportunity to experience a good life.

Everything is about greed in America and everybody wants to make their money, and I get it to a point, but there’s too many people waiting on list to get homes. This would include people in a domestic violence situation, homeless people, and impoverished people. All of these people need to be immediately housed in nice homes in nice neighborhoods.

This is how you create a housing crisis.

The issue is supply. There is not enough housing being built, and the existing market is not sufficient in meeting the needs of those who want to live in those areas, and so the pricing rises. Your answer is to pull those homes from the market and further constrain supply.

The government being a landlord doesn't change the problem. We also need more affordable housing on a whole, but converting existing supply doesn't solve that problem, it only shifts the direction of the problem into creating more need for affordable housing.

If you want to "immediately house" people in need, the most economical and reasonable way is to build large, dense properties in areas where people are. It's that simple.
