Also make a cap on the number of single family homes one person can own. Rent is for apartments.

I would agree with a cap of 2 detached houses per person/couple.

Rent is not just for apartments, some people have families and need to rent as well, due to work and other life conditions. Can't easily house 2 adults and 3 children in an apartment.
