    Tax vacant housing in a increasing amount per residence past 2 properties. Vancant to be defined by being unoccupied for 3-6 months of the year.

    Tax could be based on market rent for the sqft of the unit price in the area or property tax. Make it a bracket system that steps up per residence.

    Tax would go towards building affordable housing and resources/programs for the homeless.
