President Donald Trump on Jan. 7 announced he’s taking steps to bar large investors from purchasing more single-family homes, in a bid to offset concerns about inflation and the cost of living.
“For a very long time, buying and owning a home was considered the pinnacle of the American Dream. It was the reward for working hard, and doing the right thing,” Trump wrote. “But now … that American Dream is increasingly out of reach for far too many people, especially younger Americans.”
