It’s still good in some ways though because shits complex. Interest rates being so low is what made houses so damn expensive.

Prices went up because people could “afford” them. Fortunately fixed rate loans are popular in the US so interest rates going up should lower house prices at some point.

(Also banks will actually have to pay interest on their loans instead of basically getting free money from they Fed.)
