the properties should stop being funded by government incentives and taxes, then snatch all bennies and social welfare away, if the properties start showing red and have to sell, they'll likely have to sell at a loss as well, this will reduce the price of homes significantly and only make it available to those rich in cash, savings or have something to invest in the properties instead of using credit, printed money or foreign investment (uncontrolled money printing from abroad) or even stopping the central banks from slapping fees all over it, along with slapping the taxman away - that'd help with property prices. no we don't want to fix that because once everyone buys a house, we want the value to go up over time and we want to be able to develop the land.
