We can't possibly build enough to have more houses relative to buyers based on the current predicted population increase. The demand is so high, that all that is achieved is more people actually get housing, not at any reduced price. Sure, it helps alleviate things getting worse, but improving the situation is the aim, not just maintaining it.
It's not about whether housing prices drop, it's whether they are lower relative to the alternative scenario of making no changes...
