    It would be interesting to know what happened over covid as the supply of and demand for houses were both stopped temporarily. Supply stopped prices went up a lot, I guess it fits with this conclusion. Or maybe there could be a number of factors that affect house prices.

    Of course they are linked. Consider an extreme example of interest rates 0.5% and watch R.E. prices. Then increase them to 100% - I think you'll see as bit of a change in the market. Interest rates and real estate prices are the opposite ends of a see-saw.
