Ever feel like housing policy is just a big game of political hot potato? 🍠 Well, the new "Road to Affordability" bill just got passed—and here’s why it almost matters.

Drop a 🔥 if you think fixing housing is about more than just grants and GPA standards!
Here's the scoop: this bill is a major milestone — thanks to the Realtors and lawmakers who fought for it. It loosens restrictions on FHA loans and makes manufactured housing more accessible. Sounds good, right? But before you pop champagne, remember: local fees and taxes will still eat up affordability.
And here's a wild thought—what if we just eliminated capital gains tax altogether? 🚀 Imagine more homes on the market, less fear for sellers, and more affordable housing for everyone. It’s the real game changer, yet nobody’s talking about it enough.
Maybe it’s time NAR focused on what really moves the needle. Until then, what’s your take—hot or not?
