WTF are you talking about?
Losing the mortgage interest deduction isn't going to significantly squeeze out individuals from the housing market. Around 30% of individuals itemize deductions; with today's low interest rates, the tax benefit of borrowing/buying is further negated.
Real estate holding companies aren't going to "crowd out" individual buys numbnuts!! If RE companies want to further engage in the market, that will drive up prices & construction will increase to satisfy demands.
