House prices in Washington, D.C., and its suburbs — one of the wealthiest areas of the nation — have taken a major hit since President Donald Trump first was elected, then fired 10,000 federal workers and offered buyouts to almost 70,000.
According to global capital-market watcher The Kobeissi Letter, since election day, almost 5,000 homes have landed on the market. The median home price has tanked almost $150,000 from about $700,000, they reported, and almost 10,000 homes are now up for sale.
They further noted that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has found that less than 15 percent of federal office space is occupied.
