A lot of times, when people discuss the phenomenon of employers ending work-from-home and try to make their employees come back to the office, people say that the motivation is to raise real estate prices.

I don’t follow the logic at all. How would doing this benefit an employer in any way?

    Oh thats the thing, yeah. There’s definitely something to transition to and given the way demand and prices have skyrocketed that thing is probably housing. The problem is that capitalism handles transitions as gracefully as evolution does. That is to say, the things that are wrong die screaming and make room for something that fits better.
