Former President Donald Trump proposed a fifty-year fixed-rate mortgage to boost the US housing market, but experts warn of potential downsides. While it could increase homeownership access, it might not solve affordability issues and could even raise home prices due to increased demand. Longer mortgages pose higher risks, and significant regulatory changes would be needed. The financial benefits for homebuyers might be minimal, with potentially higher interest rates and minimal monthly payment reductions.The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered.
