Welcome back dream makers, today we are discussing voters and housing! We are in election season, and today’s article from Housing Wires says housing is a top issue for voters. Specifically, affordability is the main issue, which is effected by rates, regulations and inventory. Last week we discussed rates and how the president really can’t influence rates, but loosening regulations, giving tax breaks & increasing inventory can really help affordability. Neither president has released a comprehensive plans for affordable housing, but the left and the right have different ideas on how to encourage buyers. What we know is we need more housing and we need both parties to get together with policy on how this will happen.
