Going back to Portland for a sec: housing costs in Portland are high today because you have more and more people working remote jobs for Silicon Valley companies, and they are buying up cheaper properties but netting California salaries.
Those people want to live in Portland because it was originally culturally enriched by people like me.

Jokes aside how is your idea feasible? The money and power of gentrification sounds way more powerful than anything that could resist it.

Big ****ing time. Owning a second home should cost hundreds of millions yearly in property tax that should go directly to the poor. Owning two houses is so ****ing selfish.
