The bill passed a procedural vote in the Senate on Wednesday by a vote of 87-8. Formal debate over the legislation will now begin, and once it is approved by the Senate, the bill will be sent back to the House for what lawmakers hope will be the final vote. <\/p>\n

The updated legislation includes revised versions of six Senate bills that House members opposed, and the House\u2019s version of a provision to protect single-family homes from being bought in droves by large corporations. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe legislative process today,\u201d said Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., on the Senate floor, \u201cgives us an opportunity to restore hope for so many people who want to just experience their version of the American dream, which is so consistently homeownership.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cToday,\u201d Scott continued, \u201cthe average age of a first-time homebuyer is 40. Forty years old before you ever experience the American dream.\u201d<\/p>\n

The bill has received unprecedented bipartisan support as Americans struggle with high housing costs. <\/p>\n

According to GOP leadership aides, final passage of the bill is expected Monday.<\/p>\n

How the bill will lower costs<\/h3>\n

The Center for American Progress said, \u201cThe reason behind the United States\u2019 affordability challenges is \u2026 simply not building enough homes.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to one of the center\u2019s , the nation is \u201cshort approximately 2 million homes\u201d and the shortage is the main driver of the rise in housing costs. <\/p>\n

The aims to decrease costs by reforming zoning laws that make housing construction difficult. Along with zoning reform, the legislation will streamline environmental reviews and update federal housing programs. <\/p>\n

Beyond red tape reform, the new legislation would also come with performance measures that the Trump administration encouraged in order to ensure results come from the changes. <\/p>\n

If the bill is passed, $200 million will be provided annually between 2027-2031 for housing construction grants and $100 million will be provided yearly in the same time frame for commercial-to-residential building conversions. <\/p>\n

Large investors owning more than 350 homes will be prohibited from purchasing more homes in order to decrease competition. <\/p>\n

Among many other provisions in the package, the bill will include an expanded HOME Investment Partnerships Program and increased FHA mortgage limits. <\/p>\n

According to Politico, Congress expects to send the housing bill to President Donald Trump\u2019s desk by next Friday. <\/p>\n
