Hard disagree. The market is complex but a massive driver of price hikes is investment companies and private owners coming in to an already hot market and making cash offers that are higher than any aspiring homeowner can match with loans, which are inherently tied to the stated assessment of the property. It's the largest factor in the absolutely ridiculous prices we're currently seeing, and also the most straightforward to address.

It won't fix everything, of course, but it will give us a much more normalized market to then attempt further reform on, rather than the current one which has more in common with a casino floor than a market.
