A key component of the order involves a pilot program for the Federal National Mortgage Association and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation. This program will periodically review single-family mortgage loans to ensure they align with the interests of the American public and federal housing agencies.
The administration has also tasked a specialized group with submitting legislative recommendations within 180 days. These recommendations are expected to address regulatory barriers that currently hinder affordable home construction, potentially impacting future development standards for property investors and builders.
