☆ Yellen announces $100 million affordable housing fund as shelter costs weigh on Biden

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen on Monday unveiled a new slate of financing initiatives to support housing development, including a $100 million fund specifically for affordable housing. The past several inflation reports have shown prices slightly cooling off, but shelter costs have remained persistently hot. As part of its new actions, Treasury will provide $100 million over the next three years to finance affordable housing projects. Housing costs in particular, which make up some of the largest portions of consumer spending, have remained stubbornly high even as other sectors have cooled down. Biden has tried to punt the responsibility of high housing costs on corporate landlords, accusing them of "rent gouging," keeping consumer rents artificially high even as their own costs have come down.

It seems unlikely that Congress will step in anytime soon to provide housing relief for Americans. But that was only a brief reprieve from a housing market crisis brewing in the US for decades. Soaring housing and rent prices made up a large portion of the increases in the latest inflation report released on Tuesday. "There's all this chaos in the housing market," Williams said. "The combination of higher mortgage rates and the slowdown in economic growth is weighing on the housing market," Sam Khater, Freddie Mac's chief economist, told Insider.
