I don’t think the responsibility is on the individual to provide housing for another but to advocate/agitate for a society where one doesn’t have to. One thing to keep in mind is that what is reasonable is relative to what can be done, and a post-industrial society doesn’t have to have necessities be scarce.

and who is in charge of this society, and what do they set the ‘fair rent’ rates at?

  I would let you decide what is fair, then hand you over to the poorest of people for feedback.

    so basically let the poorest of the poor guillotine everyone so they can take all our stuff, and then start killing each other?

  There already are countries with extremely high homeownership rates (95%+) that have figured out a housing system that’s based on a mix of heavy regulation, charging rent to the state for the land, and expropriation of the landlord class’ property. This is a problem that is solvable.
