The Biden administration announced new steps Friday to ensure access to affordable housing, launching a slew of resources to convert high-vacancy commercial buildings to residential use.
One to four units can only be privately owned, 5 to 8 units can only be owned by a registered company, more than that must be run as a non profit (ideally a state corporation).
People are only allowed to own one property in a 50km radius (meaning that if you own a 4 unit you pretty much have to live in it unless you live in the next city over).
I’m not sure how you would do the non-profit since a lot of corporations already own high rises with “luxury” apartments. Are you saying they would be grandfathered in?
I’ve got similar ideas!

If it’s rental then it’s non profit, they can convert them to condos if they don’t agree.
