Can Trump Fix the Housing Affordability Pinch?

from Votes & Verdicts · host Bloomberg

The wave of policy proposals shaping the debate around the growing US housing affordability crisis is the focus of this episode of the Votes and Verdicts podcast. Host Mike Sasso is joined by Jim Tobin, CEO of the National Association of Home Builders, and Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Drew Reading to unpack the latest signals from President Donald Trump on deregulation and federal land proposals, along with accusations of price fixing and controversial mortgage ideas. The conversation dives into the real drivers behind high home prices, including interest rates, supply constraints, labor challenges and local regulations.
