What does that even mean? Concrete, lumber, electric, plumbing, plus location location location that everyone else wants. How can it NOT be a commodity with fluctuating prices based on basic market forces like supply and demand? Explain

Decommodification means to cease production for the purpose of profit. Instead, have robust public housing and personal house ownership, rather than allow private landlording. Red Vienna is a similar example in real life.
