IMO RE getting huge windfall profits off the back of the current crisis isn't particularly fair.
However, this seems like an occasion where hypothecation would be fair. So x% windfall tax with 50% going into RE projects and the remainder supporting household bills.
Obviously this isn't a serious suggestion as I recognise that any kind of nuance or thoughtful investment in the UK is beyond this government. Instead let's just frack on, given our huge swathes of homogeneous uninterrupted and sparsely populated landscape.
