More people like you, increasing capacity, instead of price, are the solution. Be proud. You are the solution to high prices. I would call that 1031 exchange an unfair benefit to the already over benefitted by capital gains tax being half of income tax class though.

The world needs more houses with more people in them. That requires lower house prices, or richer people. I do not like the attitude home owners have that their future must be paid for by the pain of others not being able to afford homes. And that the profit they make on that low production asset subsidises their leisure lifestyle. Building is better than speculating, for speculating is 1 layer removed from production.
