I think you’re misunderstanding my point. Frankly the terms “investment” and “housing” don’t belong near each other in the first place. “Making it similar to other Investments” is still putting those two words way the fuck too close to each other.

Nobody cares if you’re renting out Grandma’s house to pay for her nursing home currently (even though that’s an entirely separate problem that absolutely needs addressing). That’s not what the majority of rentals are.
