Tariffs Out, Housing Bill In: Big Changes Coming for Real Estate
On The Market
Tariffs' Impact on Construction Costs
Kathy and James discuss who bore tariff costs, effects on lumber and materials, and pricing stickiness.
Many of President Trump’s tariffs have been canceled—and the housing market could stand to benefit. Could this be yet another sign that inflation is slowing and that mortgage rates can continue to fall?
This is big news for the housing market, but it’s not even the biggest news of this episode.
Today, we’re going over everything you may have missed. From the Supreme Court striking down tariffs in a majority vote to a major housing bill moving forward, to cities seeing the most new corporate headquarters (a serious sign of job growth), we’ve been busy taking stock of the stories affecting investors.
We’ll get into how the tariff reversal will affect prices and mortgage rates (this may be great news), the new housing law that could make building, renovating, and financing even easier, Trump’s new “tokenized” real estate investments, and the markets that may see the biggest booms as jobs flood these areas.
In This Episode We Cover
Tariffs canceled: a win for the housing market as inflation risk reduces?
The new housing supply and affordability bill that could pass the Senate soon
The cities that are gaining (and losing) corporate headquarters (some are not so obvious)
Would you invest in Trump’s “tokenized” real estate investment? The “crypto for real estate” push continues
Will tariffs be returned to American citizens who paid them? One Supreme Court justice gives his honest take
And So Much More!
