I agree. As long as the majority of voters live in houses, it'll stay the same. Homeowners will vote in favour of their own self-interest. Constrained supply means increased demand and higher prices.

Seems irrelevant to a single property owner though, unless you have an escape plan. Especially if you have a mortgage and stand to take a big hit when interest rates go up.
