It will curb flippers though.
Realistically I don't understand how anyone without residency should be allowed to purchase a home anyways. If you can't actually live in the country, theres no reason a government shouldn't be able to tell you to fuck off when it comes to people actually being unable to LIVE in the city you are parking your investment in.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Shelter is a basic human necessity, and it should be prevented from being treated as a commodity at least at basic levels.
Yeah my communism is showing again, but the amount of money sitting stagnant in rich peoples bank accounts and parked in empty homes is doing no fucking good for society.
