UBI doesn’t do that. Unless tied to something like land-value tax, UBI just raises rent cost. Of course it doesn’t happen immediately, but within a year or so UBI will be consumed by rent cost.

Housing is generally supply blocked due to zoning/regulation/bureaucracy/etc. It's a severely dysfunctional market in most areas.
