It will affect housing prices in working class or service industry oriented areas.
If a majority of your home owners are knowledge workers who are remote or bought a home in cash they’ll sit on them.
If the knowledge workers get laid off then the aspiring home buyer is also likely to be laid off. People who bought in cash will still sit on them because they will have no reason to sell.

It seems clear from the numbers of developers being laid off and start ups that are financially failing that this assumption is imaginary. The only financial security a knowledge worker has, in this current economic downturn, is the essential nature of their employer or their employer's cash liquidity.
