Trump's Housing Ban Won't Save You

Dear Reader,

Look, I've been warning you about this stuff for decades now.

The system is rigged. We all know it. And slapping on more government rules isn't going to un-rig it.

• The Scapegoat: Trump's ban on institutional investors buying homes sounds populist, but big investors own less than 4%—the real crisis… 

• The Pattern: Government strangles housing supply with red tape, prices explode, then politicians blame Wall Street 

• The Smart Money Move: Don't wait for government saviors—buy cash-flowing properties now while others panic, use debt wisely, hold hard assets…

• Hidden inside the Big Beautiful Bill are new carve-outs that could slash your tax bill, multiply your income, and protect your family's wealth. Donald Trump and I wrote the only book that shows you exactly how. Click here to claim your copy!

Yesterday President Trump came out and said he's banning big institutional investors from buying single-family homes.

"People live in homes, not corporations."

That's his quote. He's asking Congress to make it official.

And I get it. On the surface, it sounds pretty good, right?

You've got these Wall Street giants like Blackstone buying up neighborhoods. Turning them into rental properties. Families getting priced out of their own American Dream.

I understand the anger. Believe me, I do.

I've been in real estate my entire life. I love this stuff. Real estate has been one of the best wealth-building tools I've ever used—cash flow, appreciation, incredible tax advantages.

But here's what nobody in Washington wants to admit.

This Ban Doesn't Fix the Real Problem

This is just more government meddling. They're putting a Band-Aid on a gunshot wound while the bleeding continues.

You want to know the real reason homes are unaffordable?

It's not because of a handful of big investors.

The data shows institutional investors own less than 4% of single-family rentals nationwide. Four percent. That's it.

The actual problem? We don't have enough houses.

Simple as that. Too few homes being built for way too many people who need them.

So Why Aren't We Building More Houses?

Government red tape. Mountains of it.

Zoning laws that make it nearly impossible to build anything new. Permits that take forever and cost a fortune. Environmental regulations that drag projects out for years. And don't even get me started on the NIMBY crowd—the "not in my backyard" people who fight every single new development.

Then you've got the Federal Reserve printing money like it's going out of style. That created massive inflation. Building materials got expensive. Labor got expensive. Everything got expensive.

And now interest rates are sky-high, making mortgages brutal for anyone trying to buy.

That's your real problem right there.

But politicians won't talk about any of this. Because guess what? They created most of it.

This Is Just More Market Interference

Trump's ban is the government picking winners and losers again. More intervention. More control.

Look, in real capitalism, anyone can invest in anything. Supply and demand work things out naturally. Prices find their own balance.

But when government strangles the supply side with a million regulations, then turns around and blames investors for high prices?

That's not capitalism, my friend.

That's cronyism wearing a capitalist costume.

My rich dad taught me something crucial early on: Don't sit around blaming other people. Educate yourself. Then go buy assets anyway.

Real estate is still one of the most powerful wealth-building tools out there, even with all this political noise.

But smart money doesn't sit around waiting for politicians to ride in on white horses and "fix" everything.

Here's What Smart Investors Are Doing Right Now

They're buying cash-flowing properties in solid areas. They're using debt intelligently—the way wealthy people have always used it. And they're holding real assets like real estate, gold, and silver while paper money slowly dies.

This announcement might spook some investors in the short term. Those big rental company stocks might take a hit temporarily.

And you know what that is? That's an opportunity if you know what you're doing.

Long term, though? Until we actually cut regulations and let builders build houses again, prices aren't coming down.

Nothing fundamentally changes.

What Nobody Wants to Hear

You want affordable housing? Here's the actual solution:

Slash zoning restrictions. Make permits fast and cheap. Let people build.

Stop the Fed from destroying the dollar with endless money printing.

Bring interest rates down so normal people can afford mortgages again.

But that means politicians would have to admit they caused this mess.

And that's never going to happen.

What You Should Do Instead

Stop waiting for Washington to save you. They won't. They can't. They caused half the problem in the first place.

Take control of your own financial future.

Learn how real estate investing actually works. Build your asset column. Protect yourself with things that hold real value.

The American Dream isn't dead. But it's definitely not hiding in some government office either.

It's in your education. Your action. Your willingness to learn and move.

Buy properties that generate cash flow. In good neighborhoods with solid fundamentals. Use leverage the right way—debt can make you wealthy when you know what you're doing. Hold hard assets that don't evaporate when politicians mess things up.

And ignore the political circus.

The Unsored Truth

Trump's ban makes for great headlines. It sounds tough. It plays well with voters.

But it's attacking the wrong target.

Big investors aren't why your kids can't afford houses. Government regulation is. Government money printing is. Government interference in markets that should be left alone is.

Until that changes, housing stays expensive.

But here's the thing. Expensive markets create opportunities for people who've done their homework.

While everyone else is complaining and waiting for rescue, you can be out there buying assets. Building wealth. Creating cash flow that comes in whether politicians do their job or not.

Politicians will promise you change until they're blue in the face.

Real wealth? That comes from you.

Get educated. Buy assets. Use them wisely.

And remember—the system was never fair. But education and action beat sitting around hoping every single time.

Stay strong out there.

P.S. My friend Jim Rickards at Paradigm Press just shared this urgent message:

If you have any money in the markets…

Public Law 63-43 (see it below) could have a huge impact on your wealth in 2026. You see, three simple words buried deep in Section 10 of this 112-year old little-known law…

Grants President Trump the power to make this critical move on May 15th. President Trump himself has confirmed the plan is already in motion.

As a former advisor to the CIA, the Pentagon and the White House…

I know for a fact there are meetings taking place right now behind closed doors in the White House. His entire administration is preparing for it. I recommend you prepare as well.

Click here to see the details because I believe this single move will help unleash a historical supercycle of wealth…

That “gift” will make a lot of patriots rich on America’s 250th anniversary.
