When you sell a home, the profit you make is taxed. It's called the capital gains tax. You can exclude a portion of that profit from taxes – up to $250,000 for a single person or $500,000 for a married couple. Some housing experts and politicians think changing the capital gains tax on home sales could motivate more homeowners to sell, and open up homes amid a national housing shortage. WUWM's series, Seeking Solutions: Keys to Homeownership, examines barriers to home buying and possible solutions. WUWM's Race & Ethnicity Reporter Teran Powell speaks with UW-Madison professor of Urban Planning, Kurt Paulsen, to learn more about the capital gains tax and how reforming it could affect housing in Wisconsin.

The median age of all homebuyers is a record-breaking 59. First-time homebuyers average age 40, up from 29 in 1981. This is the result of not building enough houses and allowing too many people in our country, both legally and illegally.    We need big solutions to solve big problems. Some are calling for a Marshal Plan for housing. Many ideas are being floated to improve housing affordability.    50-year mortgages are a particularly bad idea for many reasons. The one positive would be lower monthly payments than a 30-year mortgage. But interest rates would likely be higher on a 50-year mortgage than a 30-year; similar to 15-year mortgage interest rates are typically lower than 30-year. This would eliminate most of the benefit of lower payments.   The American dream includes owning your own home, not renting an apartment.   This is a supply problem. Solutions: 1. There needs to be incentives to build affordable single-family homes.  2. Permit and infrastructure fees average 24% of the cost of the average home.  3. Deport illegal immigrants and fraudulent legal immigrants.   HB-1 visas are supposed to be for the rare "genius". No one would have an issue if a few HB-1 visas were needed to train Americans to build high-end computer chips. The reality is that HB-1 visas are currently about 750,000. About 80% take entry-level and junior-level jobs from Americans.   Some work visas do not require the company to pay payroll taxes. The foreign worker's job is typically tied to their job. If they lose their job, they have to go back home. This gives the company control over the employee. The company saves taxes, can pay the foreign employee less, and has more control. It is a form of indentured servitude.    The US Census counts illegals and the 55 million visa holders. This gives more seats in the House of Representatives and Electoral College votes. The majority of illegal immigrants and visa holders live in blue states. It is about political power.   Fewer people in the US would prefer the quickest method to increase affordability.

The opening episode traces the intellectual and personal journey that gave birth to the idea of "Competitive Urban Land Markets" (CLM). It follows Chris Parker's path from his early attempt at NZIER to broaden traditional cost–benefit models so they could capture the transformative effects of infrastructure investment, to his move into Auckland Council as Chief Economist, where he began to see high land prices not as signs of prosperity but as symptoms of monopoly and institutional failure. The conversation explores how Parker's challenge to the “compact city” orthodoxy led to professional isolation, the coining of the term CLM to communicate publicly without triggering entrenched interests in rising property values, and the emergence of a small, dissident circle of urban economists that quietly germinated a new paradigm. Later, at the invitation of The New Zealand Treasury, Parker joined central government to help redesign the national urban planning system. The CLM framing marked a decisive turning point, from confusion to conceptual clarity, about the real cause of unaffordability and, crucially, how to chart a new pathway out of it. What began as a local heresy would become a world-leading insight: a framework that leapt ahead of state-of-the-art academic thinking and is now shaping global urban policy. The episode culminates in the seminal Treasury “chew session” with then-Finance Minister Rt Hon Sir Bill English, who, grasping the paradigm shift, declared that “clarity is now emerging from the mists”—the moment New Zealand's housing debate found a new compass.

Young Americans pushed out of the job and housing market because of immigration? Democrats can't run hoaxes anymore, not even Epstein ones? The GOP actually won a shutdown battle.

Affordability has become a major theme of 2025 and of all the areas where technology has sped up processes and brought down costs, housing has been a stubborn exception. One company that is trying to bring a new technology-based approach to this is BOXABL, and it has partnered with a SPAC to accelerate that vision. This week, we speak with Galiano Taramani, founder and co-CEO of BOXABL and Larry Swets Jr., CEO of FG Merger Corp. II (NASDAQ:FGMC). The two announced a $3.5 billion combination in August. Galiano explains how BOXABL has found an edge in how it ships its modular homes and how it hopes to eventually manufacture them at a rate of one house per minute. Larry explains how BOXABL's unique crowdfunding path gives FG Merger II confidence in the company's journey after listing and how adding financial services angles to its platform could potentially take it to the next level.  

David devotes this week's Capital Record to the folly of the “game-changing” idea of a 50-year mortgage. He stands within first principles by allowing risk takers to freely transact, but points out the economic reality of how people who believe they get a cheaper house by paying for it over an extra 20 years are, well, wrong.

In this episode of Good Morning Liberty, host Nate Thurston discusses the current housing affordability crisis and former President Trump's proposal for 50-year mortgages. Nate examines the complexities and potential downsides of longer mortgage terms, emphasizing that the root problem lies in the supply and demand imbalance in the housing market. He suggests that government regulations, state and local zoning laws, and various economic factors are contributing to the housing shortage. Nate also touches upon the role of institutional investors, immigration, and tariffs on building materials in exacerbating the crisis. The episode provides an in-depth analysis of these issues, advocating for policy changes to increase housing supply and affordability. 00:00 Intro 01:46 The 50-Year Mortgage Debate 02:41 Supply and Demand 06:29 Trump's 50-Year Mortgage Proposal 07:56 Personal Housing Experiences 11:36 Market-Driven Mortgage Solutions 15:19 Housing Affordability Crisis 17:58 Interest Rates and Mortgage Payments 30:28 Rental Companies and Housing Supply 33:48 Institutional Investors and Housing Affordability 34:44 Government Regulatory Failures and Housing Shortage 35:24 Personal Anecdotes and Neighborhood Issues 36:42 Investor Home Purchases and Market Share 38:40 State Legislation and Housing Shortage 41:04 Supply and Demand in the Housing Market 46:27 Local Government's Role in Housing Regulations 52:54 Impact of Immigration on Housing 55:21 Conclusion and Final Thoughts

This week on The Missing Middle Podcast, Mike Moffatt and Sabrina Maddeaux bust some myths and take a hard look at Canada's place in the global housing landscape. Drawing on new OECD data, they reveal why Canada's housing affordability crisis is among the worst in the developed world—with home prices having risen more than twice as fast as incomes since 1999. They compare Canada's record to other OECD countries (spoiler: it's not flattering) and highlight where affordability has been successfully maintained (hint: not here). Sabrina offers a theory on why both Canada and Australia are failing so badly at keeping homes affordable, and together, she and Mike make the case for dropping the excuse that this is just a “global trend.”Chapters:00:00 Introduction 01:30 Game:React to the Boomer Comment02:40 Young people don't want responsibility?03:59 Global trend or Canadian crisis?05:12 Missing Middle study on the global housing landscape07:35 Home prices vs incomes09:33 It's worse in Canada, it's us, we're the problem12:30 Which countries are better at affordability?15:00  Possible reasons Canada and Australia are struggling with affordability?Housing report card:https://jhelmer.quarto.pub/rescon-state-of-the-sector-quarterly-reports/12-report-card-brantford.htmlDerek Thompson Sunstack  - Chart 10https://www.derekthompson.org/p/the-25-most-interesting-ideas-ive?utm_source=www.profgmarkets.com&utm_medium=newsletter&utm_campaign=nvidia-to-invest-5-billion-in-intelCanada vs. the World: The Worst Record on Housing Affordability Since 2004https://www.missingmiddleinitiative.ca/p/canada-vs-the-world-the-worst-recordOECD Affordable Housing Database:https://www.oecd.org/en/data/datasets/oecd-affordable-housing-database.htmlHosted by Mike Moffatt & Cara Stern & Sabrina Maddeaux Produced by Meredith Martin This podcast is funded by the Neptis Foundation and brought to you by the Smart Prosperity Institute.

We're diving deep into one of the biggest challenges facing our city — housing affordability.

At MBA Annual 2025, HousingWire CEO Clayton Collins interviewed Rikard Bandebo, Chief Strategy Officer and Chief Economist at VantageScore, about one of the biggest industry shifts in decades: the entrance of VantageScore into the mortgage ecosystem. In this episode:Why is credit score competition important?For decades, the mortgage industry has relied on one scoring model. With the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) expanding options, VantageScore introduces innovation, transparency, and fairness—allowing lenders to assess creditworthiness more accurately and consumers to qualify for mortgages previously out of reach.How will this change expand homeownership?VantageScore's model incorporates up to 24 months of credit history and uses alternative data sources, helping identify five million additional households that could qualify for mortgages. These consumers are often in rural or high-rental communities, meaning the change supports economic growth and financial inclusion in underserved markets.What are the implications for lenders and the market?·       Lenders: Gain new tools to expand their customer base without increasing risk.·       Consumers: See more consistent and transparent scoring.·       Market: Competitive pricing for credit data, increased innovation, and better access to affordable lending.What's next for mortgage credit innovation?Lenders are encouraged to back-test their portfolios, prepare internal systems, and align with new data channels to ensure readiness as the transition accelerates in 2026.

The Housing Australia Future Fund (HAFF) is under intense political scrutiny following the launch of a forensic nine-month federal audit.

The Housing Australia Future Fund (HAFF) is under intense political scrutiny following the launch of a forensic nine-month federal audit. The $10 billion scheme, intended to boost social and affordable housing, is accused by the Opposition of wasting taxpayer funds and overpaying for properties. The debate has been dominated by the fund's slow delivery and expert concerns that its structure incentivises market-tied "fake affordable" rents over genuine public housing.

According to the latest data from the Canadian Real Estate Association, national home sales declined by 1.7% month-over-month in September, ending a string of steady gains that began in the spring. Even so, this was still the strongest September for sales since 2021. On a year-over-year basis, transactions were up 5.2%, while both new listings and total active listings fell 0.8%. That left just 4.4 months of inventory available nationwide — the lowest level since January, and below the long-term average of five months.The Home Price Index dropped 0.1% month-over-month and is now down 3.4% year-over-year. Average prices, meanwhile, rose a modest 0.7% compared to last year. Regionally, B.C. and Ontario are the only provinces still showing price declines, while every other province posted gains. Yukon led the pack with a 13.4% annual price increase.But when you adjust for inflation and measure from the February 2022 peak, the story changes dramatically. Real home prices in Canada are now down roughly 29%. In nominal terms, they're down 18%. Hamilton has taken the biggest hit—down about 40% after inflation—followed by the GTA and then Vancouver, which is sitting around a 20% real decline. On the flip side, Greater Moncton and Saskatoon are actually up roughly 19% nominal, or about 8% in real terms, since that same peak.The widening gap between new listings and completed sales continues to point toward more downward pressure on prices ahead. And even though affordability has “improved” from the record-breaking lows of 2024, it remains completely out of reach for most Canadians. In Vancouver, the monthly mortgage payment on a median-priced home still eats up about 87% of the median household income — a figure that's almost comically unsustainable.So where does that leave us heading into the final stretch of 2025? Will collapsing affordability finally force the next rate cut — or will the Bank hold the line, freezing the market even further? We break it all down — from record-level mortgage exposure to the cities where prices have quietly crashed 40%.This episode also marks a huge milestone — Episode 300 of The Vancouver Life Real Estate Podcast.

Greg MacKinnon is Director of Research at the Pension Real Estate Association (PREA), where he updates the world's largest institutional investors on portfolio construction, risk, and strategy. His is a vantage point most sponsors never get to hear directly. In this conversation, Greg and I revisited our conversation from two weeks ago to drill deeper into the housing market. His thesis is simple but surprising: the capital flows and risk assessments at the very top of the pyramid are being reshaped by renter bifurcation and the economics of affordability. Here are five questions Greg answered that every serious CRE professional should consider: Why does the 10-year Treasury matter more than the Fed's 25 bps rate cut last week? How fragile is today's economy, and what does that mean for institutional portfolio construction? How can understanding the “barbell” of renter demand help you make better investment decisions? Why has naturally affordable multifamily historically outperformed luxury on a risk-adjusted basis? Where are institutions actually deploying capital today and why? Greg's insights are drawn from the institutional world, where the stakes are measured in billions and the lens is long-term risk management. For sponsors and operators, listening in offers a rare chance to see how these investors are evaluating markets - and to align your own strategies accordingly. ***   In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.   With insights from economists, academics, and seasoned professionals, this show helps investors respond to market uncertainty with clarity, discipline, and a focus on downside protection.    Subscribe to my free newsletter for timely updates, insights, and tools to help you navigate today's volatile real estate landscape.
