Just lower interest rates to something reasonable, like 4.5% and stop hedge funds and major investment firms like Blackrock etc from competing for every single family home that comes on the market in most regions. Strip the lucrative tax write-offs available to these firms and it will stop that shit in a hurry. Those 2 items alone would solve 50% of the housing crisis. Another 30% of that problem is the high immigration over the past 4 years which is now largely under control....but there are still 10-20 million people here needing homes. That last 20% is a combination of homebuilder corporate greed and inflation over the past few years.
The Federal gov't has no business giving federal land to the states for housing of any kind. Every state has plenty of their own state owned public land to forfeit if so needed or so desired.
