The $7,885 Home Tax: Tariffs Explode Housing Costs
 

Dive into the dramatic impact of new tariffs, which are projected to raise the average cost of a single-family home by $7,885. This episode of the WiRE dissects how these "home taxes" are exploding housing costs and upsetting financial markets.

We'll explore why the housing market could remain stuck until 2026, with U.S. homes sitting and not selling. Discover how a weak jobs report is fueling speculation for rate cuts, yet the Fed has resisted pressure to lower rates.

We'll also cover NAR's advocacy wins, the latest on broker recruiting battles, and the ongoing industry "dogpile" on Zillow. Arm yourself with the vital intel to navigate today's complex real estate landscape.
