We need restrictions on demand in general. Get rid of the approved 40 year mortgages, get rid of the approved down payment assistance, kick private companies out of the market place and take restrictions off of builders. It would also help to see some sort of incentive on building smaller starter homes. Maybe less of a sales tax on homes sold under 200k.
Do you suggest all companies be barred or just up to a certain size? There's also wealthy individuals who own more land than entire rental companies could afford. Should we have a limit on how much land a single citizen can own? Not trying to be confrontational just curious where in specific you stand on the issue.
As someone in their 20’s with a young family I am tired of paying 2,200 a month just to rent. It’s more than my mom’s mortgage and she has a four bedroom house. It’s ridiculous.
I plead that you and anybody in a similar situation vote red in November. Orange man is not perfect but he is wayyyy better than our other options. I have been self employed for a decade and 2016-2020 were my absolute most profitable years. I have just been getting by for the past four years.
City selling homes to investors to build high rises one parcel but 100 mini apartments all at 1,200 to 3,000 a month cash hog beware your home will soon be a high rise then crime moves in years later it will become the projects puplic housing city folds
When you don't own the land under your home, rent can be raised beyond affordable or just sold out from under you at any time. So many senior communities nationwide have been going through this in recent years.
@@kyle.986You can be financially well off and still acknowledge people’s hardships. It may be an unfathomable thought that people might be struggling to pay the outrageous prices on everything between bread or eggs to housing. Just know the average American is indeed struggling to live and you can thank large corporations and the politicians in their back pockets for making life so hard on everyone. I hope you are never down on your luck because you have some growing up to do
Pretty sad when individuals making $100k can’t afford even a small condo. $100k feels like poverty and only 20% of americans even earn that. Cost of living is out of control.
Bro i live with my parents help pay some bills but still reduce potential expensas if i lived alone and i still end up low in cash. Grocery prices are insane
As someone who makes $10k more than that with a wife making $70k it feels impossible to own a home. We’re still paying student loans and paying off credit cards but even if I were debt free it would be difficult to get $20k down. Yeah I could get an fha but I’d be paying $5k a month on a small condo.
It’s mostly gen z and millennials who can’t afford the house, because of draconian land use regulations. They need to deregulate, and reform the laws to make it work.
I’m sick of trying to survive at 35 years old, not being able to afford food for me, my husband, and my child. At this age, according to the American Dream, I should have been freaking successful, have a house with a white picket fence, with the only worry when my next dental appointment would be. I’m so tired of renting. I want a house. I can’t even get into school. And this is after signing up for FASFA, WIC, and SNAP. I’m covered by the government because I’m darn near poverty level. I didn’t ask for this, you can bet your rear I worked to try and succeed in life. It just wasn’t in the cards for me and I’m tired. So very, very tired. I don’t want to survive, I want to live. I don’t want to be in government programs, I want to be self-sufficient and take care of myself and my family. What am I supposed to do as a housewife fighting for an ‘at home’ job and a husband who makes $1200 a month working for the school district? We don’t want to put our daughter in daycare, we chose to homeschool because the schools are awful-I know this after spending a decade working in classrooms. I just… I don’t know what to do. I’m uninsured, gaining weight every day, depressed, brain fogged. I feel like a shell of a human who knows deep down that something went wrong. I want a house and I want good schools and I want a job.
Me and my wife are going through the same thing. Two parent two kid household, both of us work full time and are still struggling, on government assistance and still stuck with our heads held under water.
But, you can't blame the external problems without blaming yourself first, but you made it very clear in your statement that you have to take care of your husband and son? Sounds like you bought the lie propaganda of femininsm and that you were taught to be independent and high driven no matter what. Its funny how theres two faces here in this comment section... the only reason you'd vote for Trump now is because you knew its too late, so you react desperatly and now after ur mind is changed, you want trump? Didnt women hate trump, but for what reason? Oh right....
@@gmoneydogthangDude, big companies are buying up residential homes at an astounding rate. I’m from NJ and can attest that NO ONE can buy a house in their 20’s. My friends are Architects, engineers, nurses , etc. Every single person is being forced to rent at this moment.
@gmoneydogthang if you're a free market worshipper, you'll hate the fact that Trump is imposing tarrifs and wants to reindustrialize america. Free Market fãgs are the reason why we outsourced production to China.
If someone needs to have a second or third job..they should not be taxed on their second or third jobs. Especially when they give Venezuelans everything.
Im sick of it. Meanwhile they walk in two & quickly moving into all these apts , lastnight pretty sure it was a couple who robbed a cars battery while the owner came over for a jump. Sheeesh. I dont feel safe anymore.
We’ll survive eat every other day as humans we shouldn’t be eating as much as we do. We have snake like digestive system. We can eat and go days without eating again.
Can always refuse and find another job. You think if they had to pay less taxs they wouldn't pay you more. Lol use your brain.@@phillipchristensen3202
Crackdown on Monopoly chains like WalMart, Hannaford, Costco, will also help with the cost of food. We are being ROBBED every time we enter a store ffs.
@@DeenanTheKemon1the food sucks there anyways, its not top quality which is also something that needs to be addressed, if we’re going to harvest the land unto the brink of climate change at the very least they can reduce the chemicals and toxins to allow nature to flourish again
Think about it.. YOU CANT BUY A HOUSE...you cannot buy shelter.. thats like a basic human right and your not allowed to get one unless you magically come up with 80k or more in cash.
Yeah, the only problem is that this is a widely DEMOCRATIC plan and is thus voted against by the very people who would benefit from it because they've been told LIES by right wing media. Or perhaps you could name ONE piece of GOP legislation (other than tax cuts which just add to debt) that has objectively benefited a large portion of the American populace? I mean Obamacare got millions insured. Biden's CHIP act is making sure we have critical infrastructure domestically. What's the GOP plan for inflation, healthcare, education, wages, public safety and the border? CRICKETS from the GOP. NO PLANS WHATSOEVER. Good luck running on "I AM BEING TREATED MEAN!" you buncha pansies.
Look at compensation vs production since the era of Reagan. The REASON people can't afford a home is that wages have STAGNATED since Reagan. Had I been able to earn the same increasing wages my parents had, I would have earned almost a million dollars more over my lifetime. REPUBLICANS LET CORPORATIONS EXPLOIT THEIR LABOR AND SEND THEIR JOBS OVERSEAS. LOOK AT THE REAL ESTATE IN YOUR AREA FROM The 80's VS what it costs now. Then factor in inflation over the last 40 years and you get and idea of WHO IS TAKING ALL THE MONEY. Do the same thing with healthcare.
My parents gave me their old house free of charge when I was 24. They bought it for 500k no money down. Now it’s valued at just under a million right here in San Diego 😊
24 years old and it’s clear as day Donald is the right choice. There is not even an argument to vote for Kamala. It’s sad so many of us are so disillusioned.
@@Originalrane99how is he lying when he didn’t cause inflation while he was president? For 4 years he just said it was only 1%. Biden got it up to 22%. How wouldn’t you believe trump saying he will fix it again when he did it once before? It’s people like you that vote that are going to vote for Kamala and ruin the world. Inflation will be worse with Kamala you know that right? She’s a democrat just like Biden she’s no better than Biden. Same thing different person.
@@Originalrane99 They are all corrupt, all the things he mentioned here benefit the wealthy and corporations not the working class. It doesn't matter whose in the oval office. The working class will suffer all the same. The entire system is working as intended by design. Revolution is needed to enact change. Only ignorant obsequious people succumb to the mendacious propaganda of those in positions of power. Dunning Kruger effect at its finest for the brainwashed masses.
Homebuilder here. The same floor plan is currently $80,000 to $100,000 more expensive right now than it was when Trump was president. If he could slash those interest rates way down, I have calculated it'll have a impact on 27 different industries related to home building. The possibility of getting home prices down by $100,000 could actually happen.
Prices are gonna drop and established firm owners (and property, factory, business etc) will retain their new rates and reap the difference. Trickle down won’t happen even if trump executes his promises flawlessly
I bought my home in 2019 for $330K now my house is worth $543K 😅. Two story 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath , two car garage, and 1685 Sft should not be over half a million.
@@GR1NDMOD22yes, a week before the assassination attempt, a division of blackrock shorted DJT stock by millions and then when the assassination failed they claimed the investment was a mistake
First thing that happened when Biden was installed was my son‘s rent went up 600 bucks a month, gasoline almost doubled, food is prohibitive. We stopped eating altogether.
@@stephanieames66 true, but usually the market dictates whether and how much a landlord can raise rent. In the past 3 years my rent has gone up $560. Each time i renew I look at other places and the prices are about the same which is why I haven't moved. Unless prices stay the same/go down or i get a huge raise in wages, I will be living out of my car soon.
I bought my 5-year-old home in 2005 for 62,000! I just can't understand why homes have gone up the way that they have!? It's just horrible! My 20-year-old daughter is moving back home so she can try to save to someday get her own place. The rent she is paying right now will never let her have that dream! It's just so dang sad! When I was 19, I rented a 2 bed, 1 bath house with one car garage for $400.00 a month! That also come with all the utilities! What a sad and sick world this is anymore. I PRAY that Trump gets back in because we need his mind and common scene to get America great again! And anyone that laughs and thinks it's funny we want Trump back needs to really open their eyes. They need to get off this I hate the orange man train. The left is destroying this country, and I just can't see why so many love them!
It’s the totally ignorant uneducated that are receiving a check or stamps or the elite whose wealth will only increase if communism continues. The young who have never had a job paid taxes and paid bills and are more interested in dying their hair, sleeping around, and what new gender they want to be each new week, those are Biden’s voters, in addition to illegal immigrants.
Living is unaffordable even at the lowest level... For a single person on a sole income, it is not possible to qualify and afford even a single bedroom studio apartment, it is beyond ridiculous and disheartening, I often ponder suicidal thoughts due to the ever rising cost of living and inflation. Groceries have quadrupled in price in 2 years. This has to change.
Appreciate? Why? What did he do that makes you admire him? Don't use talking points but actual events in your life he effected besides higher taxes? He made people more hateful towards each other.....made people lose sight of what it means to lie because he lies so often.
@@umberto488 lol...Trump did not make anyone more hateful. Its the left and mainstream media that are dividing the country. The democrat talking heads online, the media and in office just say trump is being hateful when its them who are. Projection. There is an anti-christian, anti-white/jewish, anti-capitalist and downright racist 'equity' ideology deeply rooted in the democrat party and many of their supporters today. Not to mention actually wanting to implement widespread socialist policies in government like free education and health care. That is not normal, democrats didn't believe that just 20 years ago. They changed and republicans have stayed the same as 20 years ago. That is the source of the division and will continue to get worse until democrats smarten up and abandon the radical beliefs they've adopted and moderate their views. What you're saying is like if the republican party changed views and decided a large chunk of them wanted to abolish 90% of government support programs like medicaid, medicare, abortion, welfare, etc., reintegrate the church with the state and force everyone to learn and adhere by the rules of Christianity, and also they decided that they're just going to protest, openly attack and promote hate against whites who marry outside their race or anyone who marries outside Christianity. Then a democrat president comes along who disagrees, calls it out, represents the other side and then you say that democrat has 'made people more hateful towards each other'. Then you wonder why we're divided. Its the same radical change that conservatives STRONGLY object to that the left is promoting in their mainstream policy and candidates now. Until the democrats change, the division will get worse. Conservatives don't need to change, they're mostly the same as they were 20-30 years ago.
Im single and bought a home 3 years ago. It's extremely hard. I travel for work, put in 70h+ a week physically working and haven't really been able to enjoy my home. Now that interst rates are up, my home would cost 40% more. I wouldn't been able to afford it. For God sake I only have a 2bd 900 sqft house! Been traveling for 10 years and I'm tired! No wonder why people don't want kids, I'm unable to support them!
I miss those economy discount tortilla chips. And the queso cheese. The walmart queso. Those were good times. I would stay up all night eating nachos and playing nintendo.
@@ItsAlpa but donald wants tariffs and devaluation of the american dollar, which will only raise prices, and he's going to cut corporate tax too, benefiting nobody. there is no going back to the old cost of living unless the country goes through a recession
@@DavidBrendan7799 the federal government gives away trillions of dollars to other countries. They clearly don’t need our tax dollars. The money is just being misused by crooked people. The greatest country in the world shouldn’t have endless taxation.
@@dpec64 I don’t even know how that is technically possible economy wise. A personal promotion and wage increase at your work doesn’t change the fact inflation is where it’s at
I bought a 3 bedroom 2 bath, 2,800 sf house on an acre for $160K at 3.75 interest in 2017. My house is currently valued at $325K and interest rates are 7.5%. No wonder people can't buy homes now, between prices and interest doubling.
@@danielsandoval8779 bruh, are you sleepy? You made a claim that it was worst under Trump because you know the market but couldn't provide evidence. I never claimed it was better. I said, "Make housing affordable again" 😄 maybe your not ready for grown folk talk. Go scribble in your coloring book 📚
Plus if you cap it, a lot of smaller (and probably even some bigger) landlords will just get out of the business entirely, since it won’t be profitable for them, leaving even less housing on the market…

I want Trump to win with a dying passion. It genuinely makes me scared and sad if he doesn’t win. America and the world for that matter was better with him in office 🙏If he doesn’t win, I fear I’ll be stuck living with my parents forever. He is hope for the American Dream, raising a family and having your own home. Kamala is third world country madness waiting to happen
The economy is just sad right now. I’m 30 and am sadly still renting an apartment. The cost of living has more than doubled and I can tell you my paychecks have stayed the same. My savings have been being depleted for years. Had money saved up for a house and now I’m almost back to square one. Everything cost too much to do anything. I really hope trump can restore the economy of America once again. I was thriving when trump was president. It’s hard to save 20-50$ in a week anymore.
They threw everything at Donny.Even live rounds.Nobody deserve such disrespect.Especially all the years and all the good he done for fellow American,friends and allies.🇺🇸🤨👍
White, almost 40, 2 kids.... Can't afford a home, much less rent. All i want to do is move closer to family and continue living quietly and right now that feels impossible 😢
Here in Australia 🇦🇺 people can't afford to buy their first home. Investors have made it to expensive to even rent them. The Government's are to blame for allowing this to happen. Every insensitive given to people only pushed up housing prices, it has allowed people to get greedy by buying multiple properties and renting them out to a point where people can't afford them. The whole system is broken
Trump's possible pick for treasury secretary is JP Morgan's Dimon, so I'm scratching my head as to how housing is going to be affordable... when he's possibly puting in charge those who are creating exactly what you are describing. We shall see.
It's almost like the same soulless and bottomless-pit-of-greed families control 90% of the World's economy and theyre NEVER satisfied with what they already have.. or something like that. 🤔
I am not from america and i know you should vote trump just because im tired of this beutiful country getting walked over and btw just so you know mr trump hater you live up to your name caleb in arabic means dog lol

Last 4 years ruined half my family financially. Now I'm moving the adult kids into the house and I will be homeless, along with a few other friends who are retired/fixed income, no housing available in my town, everyone is paycheck to paycheck....unless you work for government. Hope Trump can fix what they ruined, but I'm skeptical. I think it will never be the same. Good luck Trump.
That's not how families work. You make room in hard times. I don't believe your kids are going to put you out of your house and on the street. I call BS on that!

I’m 21 years old and I’m from Georgia. I’ve been looking to try to buy a home for myself in the near future but everything is outrageously expensive. The market is ridiculous right now. I have a good job. I’m making good money, but it doesn’t change the fact that the housing market is so high right now I will be voting for Trump.
It's crazy how much home prices have gone up. I bought my 1300 sqft house in 2022 for 275k and I thought that was really high. I'm getting ready to move again and sell and now the house is valued at 340k...
By the time the realtors take their cut and you’ve paid taxes a few years on the property and inflation from 2022 to 2024, the profit is less than it seems.
As a black young man .. put our president back in office! I'm in my 20s trying to figure out how to afford everything, especially housing . I make a good living but it's apparently not enough with sleepy joe in office

There should be a ban from foreign companies owning residential properties in our country. An exception for creating housing in tandem with a factory or major economic driver

I was making 38k 4 years ago. And was living great, didn’t struggle and bought everything and saved money. Now I make 100k a year and I’m hardly scraping by. Can’t buy a house or anything
@@daCubanaqt I work work target, in that time I was promoted twice so the pay goes along with it, but still The fact that I was better off at that point was insane
Remember, lower interest rates is NOT making houses more affordable for first time home owners. When the prices of real estate double in 3 years, a 1% reduction in the mortgage interest rate is nothing.
That’s all I want, a home. I literally work 90 plus hours a week to rent an apartment that’s gone up in price by over 100 dollars every year for the past 3 years. A company that’s owned by blackrock bought up all the apartment complexes in my area on top of a rising market. If I don’t work like this I’ll be homeless, and 4 years ago I could have had a home and payed a lot less a month and at the same time could have worked less and had a life.. and not to mention I live in one of the cheapest apartment complexes in my area. This country is being destroyed
I disagree with a lot of what the republicans say and a lot of policies but it doesn’t even begin to compare with how horrible and gross the left is. Unfortunately these are the options and we simply have to vote for Trump.
I make 32$ an hour and had to sell my house. My mortgage payment was $2215 and they raised it to $2850 cause they couldn't cover the increased insurance premium with the escrow. In the process of selling it now since I can't afford it anymore
