https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2026/01/29/trump-housing-prices-increase-affordability-economy-interest-mortgage-rates/88418610007/Amid growing affordability concerns across the nation, President Donald Trump said he is looking to drive housing prices further up, not down.Trump said at a Jan. 29 Cabinet meeting he wants to make it easier for Americans to buy homes ‒ but not by making housing less expensive. Instead, he suggested lower interest rates he expects from his upcoming pick to lead the Federal Reserve will allow more Americans to buy homes even as housing prices rise."I don't want to drive housing prices down. I want to drive housing prices up for people that own their homes," Trump said. "And they can be assured that's what's going to happen.""Existing housing, people that own their homes, we're going to keep them wealthy," Trump said. "We're going to keep those prices up. We're not going to destroy the value of their homes so that somebody who didn't work very hard can buy a home."We're going to make it easier to buy," the president added. "We're going to get interest rates down. But I want to protect the people who, for the first time in their lives, feel good about themselves. They feel like, you know, that they're wealthy people."Housing prices rose in November 0.6% over the previous month, according to the U.S. Federal Housing Finance Agency's most recent monthly report, released Jan. 27. The median home price nationally soared to a record $433,000 in November 2025, according to the real estate company Redfin. Zillow projects housing prices to increase by 1.9% in 2026.Housing prices remain elevated relative to income growth after adjusting for inflation, pushing homeownership out of reach for many Americans. The housing market is considered stagnant amid a national housing shortage, especially at the lower end of the market.
Miggers will never own a house but they will cheet because the same will happen to libs so its worth it. At least Larry Fink wont have to sell any if his mansions or yachts.

>>527324754I see, and when was I "squealing" that? Was it something you hallucinated because you're delusional?
>>527324740>Never said he made houses expensive intentionally. Which is also not even possible because house prices rose the most under Biden >Says he will not target homeowners and will instead work to make houses easier to buy by lowering interest rates on mortgages Believe it or not, faggot but nobody who owns a house wants to see the value of their house plummet because the government decided to purposely crash the market
