If inflation is followed with interest rates rising, and house prices are a product of mortgage affordability (and so interest rates), will inflation (and so interest rates rising) reduce house prices?

Has anyone modelled this? If inflation is at 6% what is a "sensible" interest rate? What percentage reduction in total borrowing would the average person have in that scenario?
