I haven't heard a compelling reason as to why the basic reality you point out wouldn't be true with UBI. It applies more to housing than to healthcare (we'd be delighted to build more hospitals and hire more nurses, but we can't make Manhattan bigger).
Georgism at work.
Places with lower building regulations and higher property taxes would likely fare better with UBI than places with locked housing supply and extreme building regulation, such as San Francisco.
If it was possible to build more housing, then I'd expect more housing to get built with UBI and rents to not go crazy. Otherwise, we're just pumping more steam into a turbine...
