The team also takes a look into Biden’s plan to implement the Obama-Biden administration's Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Rule, Biden’s first-time homebuyer tax credit and the 0.5% adverse-market fee on refinanced mortgages purchased by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.Notably, the U.S. housing industry has experienced unprecedented times this year as the deadly COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to market changes that have impacted most aspects of the home-buying process. When the pandemic was declared in mid-March, housing became a national topic as the unemployment rate spiked, leaving nearly 40 million Americans to potentially face forbearance, evictions and mortgage delinquencies.Without any signs of slowing down, the virus continues to spread from coast to coast, bringing with it a bevy of concerns. For the housing industry, these range from purchase volume, housing supply, regulation and more. As the virus becomes a permanent fixture in American life, many in the housing industry now wonder how the sector will weather this market uncertainty. For many, the answer will be determined by who wins the U.S. 2020 election.HousingWire articles covered in this episode:HUD to abolish Obama-era AFFH fair housing ruleBiden's first-time homebuyer tax credit in the age of COVID-19What happens to the refi fee if Biden wins?
