Yes, I was excited that this bill passed through Congress because there is a lot of great stuff in it.
There are provisions that tie government money to local municipalities, increasing their supply of housing and making it easier to build, which I think is so important.
There are provisions about manufactured and modular housing, making it easier for people to finance those types of homes, which could unlock a lot of additional housing supply.
You can put an ADU in your backyard that's manufactured or that's modular, and that's a great way to increase the housing supply.
There are also provisions in there about providing money for homes that are at risk of natural disasters.
And then you have some stuff in there about investors buying homes.
You know, I think overall, this bill ended up in a really great place that housing advocates can get behind.
And it is disappointing that it's not going to become the law today.
But I remain optimistic that this will get over the finish line.
Yes, it's bipartisan.
Both Republican and Democrat lawmakers support it, and also people support it.
People recognize how unaffordable it has become to buy a home or even to rent a home, and they want their leaders to take action.
So I think that this is the future, that people have gotten on board with the idea that we need to increase the supply of housing if we really want to make housing more affordable.
And this is the direction that the country is headed in.
I don't think that just one person is going to be able to stop it.
I think that this final bill came to a very logical place with respect to that issue.
I do not think that private equity or institutional investors are the reason why housing has gotten so unaffordable.
I think they are more a symptom than a cause.
And although the bill claims to ban them from the market, what it really does is it caps the number of homes that they are allowed to own and puts in some regulations on how they can
you know, rent those homes out.
