Er, I thought supply/demand rules were already in place? I mean, in my current fortress I have more than 3000 portions of prepared meals, and as a consequence even the masterpiece ones are dirt cheap - the "prices" screen always shows prepared meals at 50% of the base price, but I'd say it looks more like 10% or 5% by now; even the occasional peasant "claims" a three-bar syrup roast. Though, I admit, my peasants are somewhat overpaid.

I don't think there's supply and demand for rent though.  Otherwise, why all the evictions?

Thats true. Rent is based on fixed values for the floors, walls, and such. And that does make for housing problems.

But if housing used supply and demand for pricing, then nobles would keep wanting larger and larger suites. They are a PITA as it is, without playing musical suites on top of that.

I just deal with the housing issue by making sure to have plenty of extra beds in my barracks.
