it is, but it's also complicated as the problems are quite a bit different in China then in the US
the reason there was a bubble in China was because they sold (barely) affordable (apartment owned, not rented) housing to a huge amount of people while not producing it. Like they financed it similar to a snowball system. Group B buys housing but pays for the housing bought by Group A then Group C pays for Group B etc. But at some point it fell apart and people realized the housing they should have gotten "soon" isn't being build (or stuck in a partial state) and the company has no money anymore. (Kind oversimplifying the whole thing.)
To top that off there are (state build) ghost cities which have cheap appartments and acceptable building build quality, the problem is there is nothing there, no jobs(!), no supermarket, bus, people, "anything", if you are unlucky even electricity might be cut of in parts of it, (also I guess for rent not apartment ownership). (But there are also enough examples of western media reporting about ghost cities messed up because turns out just a few years later it wasn't a ghost city anymore.)
And to make that worse it's not just Evergrande. It outside of the areas with a lot of central government focus there where many cases of houses building companies which had money issues trying to pretend everything is fine by cheeping out on building cost to a point where houses build that way are basically unusable. Through from the outside it looked like there is still progress. Issue with that is, it is really hard to guess how bad it is, pro-china media most times doesn't mention it and if it says it's a rare exception and/or videos are fake, anti-china media says it's bad to a point it's everywhere, and you find little in between. And both sides are known to lie a lot.
