>A company built a new office nearby? Rent goes up. More "affluent" people are moving into a particular area? Rent goes up. And so on.
Those things seem to be due to demand. A new office means that people can make more money living in that location, so are willing to pay more for accommodation there. More affluent people moving to a location means that they must see some value in living there. How does UBI increase the demand for housing in any one place (or at all)?
