It's not even a special problem if a corp is a landlord or just one person.
The problem is not enough housing, not enough construction. Housing prices are actually decreasing in Austin because Texas builds

The problem is Landlords.
Why? It's impossible for all of the homes to be owned, we've been between 63-68% home ownership

Public and individual ownership.
The government doesn't have the money to buy every property
