Yes please...
In general I think they need to work on the integration of alts (let me at least send mail to them! Please!) and putting them as tenants in the main's house would go a long way towards that. It's not like the housing economy really gains anything worthwhile from having extremely rich individuals essentially buying it out, versus multiple individuals holding one house each, so I don't think there'd be server-economy concerns about a change like this.
Obviously some people would still get around it by purchasing FC houses with one-man FC's, and I don't really see a way to work around that without greatly inconveniencing people who aren't doing anything wrong, but even just providing stable and garden access to alts would remove some of the desire for the relatively casual player to try and buy multiple personal houses.
Especially if they created a system whereby folks could make private rooms in personal houses which they're an appropriately-ranked tenant of (meaning someone with alts sharing their main's house could still have a "personal area" for each alt).
