HOWEVER, I am helping them by forgiving 20% of their rent to compensate for the loss of their 2nd jobs.Given this scenario, this plays out even worse in immigrant neighborhoods.

For example I know in the UK that popular rental properties are more along the 0.5% rule, but property taxes are taken care of by the tenant as well as maintenance costs are much lower due to things like non shingle roofs, no grass, all brick solid structures, etc. so a portion of that 0.5% is made up in other areas.

I started working in the fields at age 12, right next to illegal immigrants, so I could afford school supplies.

2) I'm British so I follow the UK news and have seen articles about the mortgage market coming to a complete standstill: https://www.bbc.com/news/business-52106119 Some providers are no longer offering new loans or asking for a much larger downpayment.

We had a guy who rented a 'bed' at the £400 quid/week flat we had in Earls Court London UK during my 4 year tour there with the Australian High Commission.

I enjoyed it: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOe_y6KKvS3PdIfb9q9pGugI've seen people step up from across the world, whether they're businesses retrofitting to landlords helping their tenants.I'm really impressed with the Dyson vacuum guy designing a ventilator in 10 days; he'll be producing them for the UK and I assume for whomever else wants to order.Here's a link to some wealthy people and how they've helped; it's inspiring and although we can't affect to that magnitude we can always think of ways to help others even if it's on a small scale for if enough of us do it it will add up to make a big difference for many: https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/348372

The owners and managers deny they discriminated against families with children but agreed to resolve the matter through the Conciliation Agreement.Under the terms of the agreement, the owners and property managers will pay IFHMB $10,000, abolish any two-person-per-bedroom policy, remove language regarding the two-person-per-bedroom policy from advertising and marketing materials, and have property managers and staff that interact with applicants and tenants attend fair housing training.In sanctuary cities it's common to have 12 to 20 immigrants living in very small rental houses.

I watched a UK documentary on something like that a few years ago.

What you''re considering is an immigrant tradition- To pool family money to help a new immigrant purchase a home. 

On the other end of the spectrum, those present with income from family members who lack certain immigration documentation tend not to have SSNs, they also tend to have a hard time getting a mortgage (since the income from that spouse will not generally be "counted" by the lender).
