Yes, as long as it does not interfere with the housing market, and is not costly for taxpayers.

The government should be building affordable housing. What is this incentivize the construction of?
Are you saying you no longer build public housing and the reason we are facing this mess is because government didnt incentivize enough builders/companies to take up the plight for building public housing? Thats exactly what this question seems to suggest when also paired up with the state of our country right now.
@9QS3S9L5mos5MO
Yes, but fund it through other ways rather than income tax alone.
@9PSLVTY5mos5MO
Yes, as long as it is not costly for taxpayers, and if it does not interfere with the housing market.

Money is better spent on encouraging people to work, to able to afford their own housing. Also, property and rent prices should be decreased.
