Description

In today’s Daily Download episode, HousingWire covers the National Association of Realtors’ expressed disappointment in the termination of the AFFH fair housing rule.For some background on the story, here’s a summary of the article:On Wednesday, President Donald Trump tweeted about his administration’s actions in abolishing the Obama-era AFFH fair housing rule – a move which we covered on July 23.In his tweet, President Trump wrote (among other things): “I am happy to inform all of the people living their Suburban Lifestyle Dream that you will no longer be bothered or financially hurt by having low-income housing built in your neighborhood… Your housing prices will go up based on the market, and crime will go down. I have rescinded the Obama-Biden AFFH Rule. Enjoy!”President Trump’s tweet on Wednesday ignited heated reactions from both sides of the fence.
