We need to subsidize the building of houses outside of dense urban areas but close enough to areas offering employment choices. As of now, the inventory is primarily being driven towards the high-end in a "trickle-down" non-management of inventory where average people lose interest in investing in themselves or the future of anything. Millions of disgruntled, idle, and dissatisfied individuals don't make for a stable economy or safe country. E.g., you don't have many suicide bombers, mass shooters, or addictions/crimes/"quick-fix" politicians of despair in productive, sustainable economies.

Widespread homeownership is less than 100 years old. Before it people weren’t all disgruntled, dissatisfied, and idle.

The role homeownership and single family houses more generally plays in our culture is not a fact of the universe. They can and should change.
