There would be competition to stop rents and real estate from going up to compensate. It may or may not be sufficient.
Note that it is not merely a question of competition of perfect substites. An apartment competes with a house, but also with a shared apartment, with living with family, with leaving the area. And note that a Basic Income
quite directly increases the supply of "housing near some source of income".
