It's not as clear cut as that. I'm not sure if you've seen: https://fullfact.org/factchecks/immigrantion_house_prices-28..., but there isn't a clear correlation between immigration rates and house prices.

Some reports even suggest the opposite, that increases in immigration can REDUCE house prices: "The University of Cambridge study concluded that an immigration inflow equal to 1% of the local initial population leads to a reduction of 1.6% in house prices".
