Unfortunately this is impossible to do in the real world, given the inexpensive option of a foreigner using shell numbered companies to buy properties.

I think the right way to go is to have property title transfer tax on non residents (buy and sell) of something like 50%. Enough to stop turning our homes into the 21st century equivalent of swiss bank accounts.
