How Trump 2.0 Will Impact DC's Real Estate Market

In Washington DC, the real estate market has been considered a market of steel due to its government workforce and cachet as the nation's seat of power, but a second Trump administration may prove to be its Kryptonite.

A second Trump presidency is an unwelcome disruption in the District, a city so blue the only red you see is on the Nationals’ jerseys. Residents are still recovering from the last one. And don't even think about interfering with their federal workforce or real estate values. But that's exactly what Trump plans to do.

Here are the main ways the new Trump administration will impact the District of Columbia's real estate market:

  • The Fed
  • Mortgage Rates
  • Home Prices
  • DC Home Rule
  • Schools
  • Federal Workforce
  • Tariffs
  • Tax Cuts And Exemptions
  • Immigrant Deportations

Read about the ways in which each of these issues will benefit or prove a detriment to Washington DC.

What else can Trump do?

Hello Susan - I often say, "time will tell".  And so does history.  When it is combined with perspective, perception as well as many sorts of other things well, it is unknown.  As far as predictions of such, my crystal ball has long been put aside.

Hi Michael, happy Veterans Day!  It doesn't take a crystal ball to know that Washington DC will feel a huge impact from this particular change in administrations. Those living in the District are in a unique position and can't wait for time to tell, they need to plan now. Real estate is going through so many changes already... we'd hoped for better economic indicators for 2025. Fingers crossed that it all comes right. Best to you!
