The fix: (1) government re-regulates building to be easier and land to be more available, causing a housing boom. (2) government guarantees every house's value as it was before the reforms. If the value falls, government pays the difference. (3) Government raises a tax to pay this all off.

This is why we can't have nice things. Raise a tax to guarantee that the richest people keep being rich? Do not want.
