I think at a certain point of communism whether you "own" your home or whether it's technically owned by the Housing committee with full rights devolved to you while you live there is irrelevant. The only real risk is of the collective going Home Owners Association on you because you keep a tin boat in the front yard or something.
Pretty much what I said in the thread that under communism eventually you'd start to resolve the contradictions between renting and owning a house and hopefully end up with the positives of owning your house (lifetime security, being able to modify it) with the (few) positives of renting (not being responsible for unexpected repairs and being able to dispose of the housing if you want to move to another city etc).
