That policies restricting who can buy homes will hurt immigrants.

In general, of course not, but GP originally proposed specifically forbidding non-permanent residents from buying houses. How is that not hurting immigrants?
The policy does not have to be binary - you can forbid non-permanent residents from buying more than one home instead.
Agreed that the policy doesn't have to be binary, but GP's original phrasing was literally "ban non-permanent residents from buying property," which is what I was responding to.
