If relocators were subjected to the timer then housing would get fixed.

Currently, housing owners actively work against the non-owners to prevent organized outcry over the extreme toxicity of the current housing system. SE does this on purpose because it gives them a large enough population of players to suppress the problem by telling others to "work harder". Just click for "another 24 hours" and you'll get there one day little serf!

The current design is unbelievably toxic and pits the playerbase against itself by dividing us into classes. The housing system explicitly is set up for the maximum benefit of people who already own a house at the expense of people who do not.
