It seems like a problem that will self-correct. If too expensive housing is keeping couples from having children, then population will decline, which will free up a lot of housing stock making prices drop, and then people can afford having children again. Maybe it is just cyclical?

Population demographics is not zero-sum. Very soon the fraction of people who are too old to work will be larger than the fraction who can. We'll lose a shit ton of able, working bodies all across the board. This will tank the econony and quality of life for everyone.

This is the exact problem Japan is facing. You should go read up on how well that's "self-correcting" (it isn't)

You underestimate the landed gentry’s determination.

Even now landlords will prefer to keep a building empty rather than lower the rent.
