Im having trouble parsing your first question, but I'll take a crack anyway.

I'd probably calculate tax based on what a vacant unit is available for, if it isn't available could do something like last known rent adjusted for market or calculations based on property value.

The idea being they'll list it for rent at a reasonable rate instead of keeping it off the market or keeping rent high in order to fill units.

Some dudes fourth property or a CEOs second apartment aren't the problems with housing though. It's investment capital grabbing properties and doing nothing with them. Buildings standing vacant because they weren't profitable enough. Empty lots we won't even let the homeless camp on.

A number of these properties are essentially abandoned, forgotten about by bankrupt companies where ownership is on an unsorted piece of paper in a filing cabinet. We've got an "affordable apartment complex" out here the company stopped building on quietly after the publicity ran out and it was no longer cost effective.

Resources hoarded and wasted for the rest of us to fight over scraps.

Tie the tax to the price of rent and you'll be guaranteed to see rents dropping

My problem isn't with reselling but the trend of overpricing, I suppose scalping is an appropriate term.

There's also a massive trend of reselling where people either shop thrift to sell at a markup or people trying to sell their stuff for close to new prices

Once again someone takes what I'm saying all the way to left field

What I'm proposing you wouldn't lose the 300k because you still have your house and you'll get the 300k back over time. And yes taxes don't come out of thin air, but the whole system needs plenty of overhauling.

And yet they keep writing exceptions allowing IGM on intersex infants every time they write their laws banning transgender healthcare for minors.

I love missing conversations because I'm five layers deep modeling my responses

Twice now I've had male security harass me. Once was a single occupancy porta potty.

I believe one of the studies (but I am quoting a Tumblr post) showed that higher skilled males had no issues with even higher skilled women, but low skill males became hostile to the presence of women in spaces.
