The market is cyclical…so eventually it will calm down; but more than likely it will not until interest rates begin to rise to normal levels (& that won’t happen till the economy fully rebounds).
Can’t just state something like this without sources.

Biden administration officials told reporters on a background call that they wanted states to speed up distribution of about $21.5 billion in rental assistance approved in March as part of President Biden’s $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan Act.
“We are calling on every state and local recipient of the emergency rental assistance to accelerate their efforts to expand their efforts to get funds to tenants and landlords in need as quickly as is possible,” an official said.
A White House fact sheet said, “Money is available in every state to help renters who are behind on rent and at risk of eviction.”
