Thinking About Buying a Home? Here’s What You Need to Know About the New Tariffs

by Janine Barbera-Dalli

President Trump’s newly announced tariffs are raising the cost of home construction across the country—up to $9,200 more per new home—by increasing the price of imported materials like flooring, appliances, and more. While the worst-case scenario was avoided, this still may mean higher costs and potential delays for new construction. That's where we help. Our agents are experienced to help you to understand where costs will rise and where there is potential value.
