One of the most important factors in causing the 2005-2006 housing bubble was Allen Greenspan's decision to keep the Fed Funds rate at very low rates for a long time after the 2001 dotcom crash. This caused credit to be very loose, and helped people obtain loans and buy houses that they weren't qualified to have. It also caused housing bubbles elsewhere, especially in European countries. Spain and the UK were also hard hit.
Another important factor was the Democrat controlled congress passing laws that allowed and even encouraged people to buy loans. Both sides could see this bubble bursting. The start was decades earlier when Carter forced banks into making 10% of their loans in communities that didn't have people wanting to buy in with good credit. The Community Reinvestment Act forced banks to search for people to buy in these areas. A great idea for the areas, and a very bad idea for banks. Clinton, in 1996 removed restrictions on verifying legal income. This opened the door to even more bad loans in bad areas. To compensate for these bad loans, banks had to see larger interest rates. The previous limits to interest was also removed during the Clinton Presidency. The ONLY President to try to curb this issue was President Bush. He was shot down by the Democratically controlled Congress as being reactionary.
Subprime mortgages offered to people who couldn't afford the payments.
Banks would give $200,000 dollar loans to people earning $30,000/year. The banks could also issue adjustable rate mortgages. The banks could then change the interest rates as they saw fit, making people unable to pay the monthly fees.
The bubble is caused when people have the false belief that real estate is an investment that will never depreciate. People thought they could buy a house for $200,000 and next year it would be worth $250,000 and they could then sell the house for profit. This caused many people to buy houses. When the Stock Market took a tumble, people panicked, and everybody sold their houses. This led to an increase in supply, which caused the price to drop.

The law of supply and demand would cause the price to skyrocket. "Tulip mania" occurred in the early 1600s, when contract prices went way, way up- and then suddenly collapsed. The event is considered to be the first recorded speculative bubble, or economic bubble.
