Or just continue raising interest rates. At least where I live, the majority of the excess demand during the pandemic came from investors. It was easy to leverage up and buy more houses using home equity loans while interest rates were low and home prices were appreciating rapidly. Higher interest rates should in theory pop all of these asset bubbles we're seeing.
