Yeah covid had a definite impact, both positive and negative. Positive in that a lot of people weren't spending and were able to save for a home and now they're ready to buy, and a lot of what's happening now is due to the fact that there's so few new houses being built, and there's such a high demand that when houses go to market there's literally bidding wars for them because there's such little inventory.

I think WFH has also played a large role in that. Not having to live near work has opened up the option of moving for a ton of people, who are moving to places with no regard for the local job market (since they already have a job they'll be doing remotely), many of which were not previously in high demand and therefore didn't have much housing supply already available. That spike in demand in areas with little surplus housing stock coupled with a labour shortage and inflated material prices (both consequences of Covid) has left housing supply scrambling to catch up.
