True, false, or uncertain, describe why.

Financialization of the housing sector contributes to rising housing prices, particularly in urban areas. Investors want to earn a higher rate of return and, especially when interest rates rise, the arithmetic of accounting would lead investors to charge higher prices for homes or to lower the level of maintenance or both.
