If we just banned housing sales to non-full time residents, this would probably work itself out in time, but that would make too much sense.

Exactly, get corporations out of the housing market. It's a joke that there hasn't been any legislation about this when it is such a big problem. Those in charge do not care, if it effected their investments it would be illegal tomorrow.
Unfortunately it’s not just corporations, it’s also individuals coming over to buy second (or third, fourth) homes to rent while they’re not here, or just straight up buy properties to turn into short-term vacation rentals, or overpriced long-term rentals. Both of which fuck over residents.
Those people who use this disaster as an opportunity to enrich themselves should go to hell in their afterlife.
Take care of the locals first.
