The Blue States could maybe set up a subsidized home loan program to make home ownership cheaper for people moving from Red States to Blue States. HUD has similar programs for lower or moderate income people seeking to save money and own a home. Blue State government is of course just speculative, but the idea would be to reproduce federal government programs, just in Blue States.
