Lawmakers in Washington have passed a major housing bill called the 21st Century Road to Housing Act, aiming to make homeownership more affordable. The bill received strong bipartisan support and is now awaiting President Trump’s signature. It addresses the issue of housing affordability, which has become a priority due to rising home prices and mortgage rates. The bill includes various measures to encourage housing construction and make it easier for people to buy homes. One notable provision is a ban on corporate investors buying large numbers of single-family homes, which aims to prevent them from outbidding families. The U.S. currently faces a shortage of over 4 million housing units, making it difficult for many families to afford homes.
