There are some better ways to address this than what this post is advocating.

For example, why should a corporation buying a residential property be getting the same (or better) interest rate than an individual who intends to buy it and live in it?

Why should that corporation be able to deduct expenses that an individual could not if they were living there?

There are ways to give the individuals a leg up over the corporations in the market without something drastic like this that has no chance of happening.
