or the site is cleared and goes into a 50 year ‘public use’ lockup, where the developer owns it still, but it must be used for the public good for 50 years. A park or community garden, for example. Basically just enough to make it unattractive as an option for the contractor

Start doing things like this, you just might shake enough of the BS money out of the real estate markets to return to sanity.

You propose to make the real estate markets work better by further restricting supply?

Restricting illegal profit-taking, where possible.

Black money inflates markets. Inflated markets inflate other markets.

That worked well in the Bay Area. Definitely a bastion of sane real estate markets.
