I don’t believe that is the case. There is no value in letting a property sit empty accumulating value, when it could be doing exactly that while pulling in a hefty monthly rent.
It may well be the case that there’s enough homes empty to house everyone, but only if they’re happy to move somewhere they don’t want to be, and where there’s no jobs to pay for them.
There’s no shortage of homes in the US. They’re just being hoarded for their increasing value.

renters bring risks. if the home is on the market, they also make it a half to sell
