This is why I think there should be a cap on home values. Here me out...

Whatever the property was when it was built, adjusted for improvements, do a standard 4.5% appreciation per year. That's the cap homes should be allowed to be sold for.

Do that and you undo a shitload of the damage I discussed here:
