This executive order directs multiple federal agencies to review and revise regulations related to environmental permitting, energy efficiency standards, and housing programs to reduce barriers to residential construction. It mandates development of best practices for state and local governments to streamline permitting and promotes single-family home construction in Opportunity Zones through tax incentive alignment.
This executive order directs federal agencies to restrict large institutional investors from acquiring single-family homes that could otherwise be purchased by individual owner-occupants. It mandates rulemaking and guidance within 30-60 days to block federal financing, insurance, and asset sales to institutional buyers while prioritizing family homebuyers, and tasks Treasury, DOJ, FTC, and HUD with additional reviews and enforcement actions.
This memorandum directs the Treasury Secretary to develop a plan for ending the conservatorships of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and reforming the housing finance system, and directs the HUD Secretary to develop a plan for modernizing FHA and GNMA programs. Both plans must distinguish legislative from administrative reforms and include implementation timelines for administrative actions, to be submitted to the President 'as soon as practicable.'
