In last nights debate, Vice President Harris emphasized housing affordability, addressing the shortage of homes and proposing a plan to increase housing supply by 3 million units. She also highlighted her background and connection to first-time homebuyers, contrasting it with Trump’s real estate wealth. 

Harris proposed tax credits for builders, cutting red tape, and a $25,000 down payment assistance for first-time buyers. She also touched on the rising cost of property insurance due to climate change. Trump did not address housing as directly but has previously suggested cutting regulations and using federal land for new construction.

Sharing this because it could have a significant impact on the housing market in the near and long term.

If Harris gets elected and implements this $25k for FTHB, guess what that will do to the price of the homes.....? increase them by $25k. People forget, there are implications when you give things away for free. Ultimately, someone will be paying for it. NOTHING is for free, someone ultimately pays for it.
