Thanks, it seems after about two days of no issues, there was another one earlier today.

Ironically one cause of the problem can be seen as sole reliance upon laissez-faire economics to provide housing; usually this is a principle more favoured by conservative governments. Capitalism ultimately produces both winners and losers as it's final product. More socialist governments would theoretically focus on providing social housing or similar hybrid arrangements, and more regulatory processes to keep things affordable. IMO it's hard to imagine that any political party can just swoop in and fix things that the other one can't, especially without causing other problems in their wake.
