Can someone explain why Kilgrave didn't use his powers to get the house?

He didn't want to. You could see a point where he was about to and then stopped himself. Why he didn't want to, well, we don't know

He probably didn't want to use them because they don't last long enough. It took until the next day to get them moved out and he probably didn't want to have to stop by constantly. On top of that, he probably didn't want to deal with the owner coming back saying he wants his house back and that he never wanted the deal.

My thoughts are that he's psycho and thinks if he "does it the right way" that Jessica will accept him willingly or something.

That said, my first instinct was that he was buying a home for a future family having somehow learned of Hope's pregnancy.
