Just have a government agency be a middle man.

Oh so the government can own residential housing! Theres no way that could possibly go wrong

Too bad. You need a centralized authority to manage territory and governments already do this for land, so they can combine land and the real estate on it and distribute it to people fairly.

If you think it's problematic, then you need to take better control of your government.

It's either that or corporations who don't care hog all of the land and housing.

Sure I will just go ahead and take control of my government, great suggestion.

I don't see the issue with that, unironically
