You touched on a core part of the issue, which is seeing housing/real estate as an investment which has driven up costs significantly while encouraging owners to be against new construction.

Im glad i bought my home 20 years ago… no way i could afford a 3-2 at todays going rate.
I blame all the house flipping shows. Made everyone think they could buy a house, paint it, then resell for 100k more.
