The problem isn't corporate ownership of housing, it's generalized speculation in the real estate market.
If you want to buy rental housing to maintain it for people to live in, that's a legitimate thing that benefits society.
If you want to buy housing for the purposes of reselling it for more money, or converting permanent housing into rentals or illegal hotels, that doesn't have value.
Housing should be for people to live in. Hotels should be for people to stay in.
