It's quite bizarre any jurisdiction would allow someone to buy housing there when they can't legally live in it.

Why? Should we restrict other investments with similar logic? For example should non-residents not be allowed to purchase vacation properties and lease them?

The impulse to enlist the government to regulate private property and investments is not productive and results in endless encroachment of individual liberties and rights to governments.

Something drastic has to be done about the cost of housing if we're to leave a functional society to the next generation.

Sure, but the high cost of housing has little to do with non-resident investors, and everything to do with lack of supply.
