In general, if you see that your money is loosing value (higher inflation), you have an automatic incentive to spend/invest it - it helps economy to grow.
In regard to property investment cases, in short, higher inflation usually means: higher cost of land, higher cost of labor, higher cost of building materials, higher rental income - all of which have positive effect on valuations. And not necessarily a higher cost of debt, especially if you have it on a fixed rate deal.
