I agree with your last point, but what is tech supposed to help about it? That's a systemic problem of jobs continually concentrating in dense urban cores where land is simply more scarce.

Tech could absolutely help jobs and services decentralize. But we wouldn't call it "real estate tech".

If Google really wanted to make a dent here, getting serious about remote first employment at Google would be a game changer even if the enabling tech never made it into the Google suite.

Unfortunately I think that is unlikely. Real estate gains and career prospects from centralization is essentially part of the compensation package for large tech companies today.
