If your “housing plan” is just to build more market price suburban homes you can go fuck yourself with the rustiest metal spike you can find. That’s me being polite.
The largest spike in housing construction in this country’s history, the one that arrived with and continued after WWII, also coincided with one the most rapid rises in housing prices.
Food for thought.
What exactly is implied by that food for thought?
Rising prices are a normal market indicator of unsatisfied demand. And the normal market reaction is to increase the supply to try to meet that demand. Which is exactly what happened here...
I'm not sure why this particular chain of events is anything other than fully expected and realized.
