  • “Immediately ban property hoarding, defined as an individual or for-profit business owning more than five properties. Real estate in excess of five residential properties owned by property hoarders should be seized and converted into public housing.”

  • “Apply a Luxury Property Tax on the 1 percent of most valuable properties, at 10 percent of improved value per year.”

  • “Introduce rent control where rents can only increase annually by either half of CPI or WPI, whichever is lower.”

  • “Construct at least 15,000 new public housing units per year for at least the next 10 years.”
