Hmm, I think large corporations should never be allowed to purchase residences though anyone is allowed to create a corporation in the US you'll just need to declare a CEO, COO, and a treasurer. This could be a simple mom-and-pop family business with 3-4 people/employees, this could prevent a lot of normal people/small business owners struggling to create a profit from purchasing workspaces, their own home, work equipment.

No more landlords? That sounds like communism.

This just results in larger complexes being owned exclusively by the ultra rich. This idea outlaws the very concept of a co-op.

Hotels used to be where you lived if you were young and semi-transient. This worked because AirBNB had not yet been invented.
