I am just as cynical that this problem can be resolved, there are too many voters actively voting against housing affordability; mostly homeowners but also a subset of the left who hate property developers and the concrete jungle aesthetic.
My main hope is that WFH tech gets so good that living near a city is no longer a competitive advantage.
