No - that is the problem. The boom means that there is a lot of job creation (everything from corporate to McDonald's) and the infrastructure can't keep up with this massive growth, thus the demand of some goods and services exceeds the current supply. Since houses/apartments take a while to build, these are some of the things most in demand.

There ARE houses to rent/buy but the demand is high (therefore so are prices), so make sure you plan accordingly.
