Under President Trump’s leadership, the U.S. economy is firing on all cylinders, with new single-family home sales skyrocketing in March, shattering economist predictions and proving the naysayers wrong. The Trump administration’s pro-growth policies have unleashed a wave of optimism and opportunity, driving this housing boom.
New home sales soared 7.4 percent to an annualized rate of 724,000, according to the U.S. Census Bureau and the Department of Housing and Urban Development. This obliterated the so-called “expert” consensus of 682,000 and even surpassed the rosiest forecasts, which topped out at 700,000. February’s numbers were also revised upward, showing the strength of Trump’s economic agenda.
Despite the gloom and doom from critics, the South led the charge in this housing surge, shrugging off concerns about mortgage rates and consumer sentiment. This resilience is a testament to Trump’s America First policies, which continue to fuel robust job growth, strong consumer spending, and now, a red-hot housing market.
Even better, the median sales price of new homes dropped to $403,600, a 7.5 percent decrease from last year, making homeownership more attainable for hardworking American families.
This aligns perfectly with President Trump’s focus on affordability, especially for young, first-time buyers who are the backbone of the American Dream. The average sales price was $497,700, with inventory rising to 503,000 homes—the highest since 2007—offering 8.3 months of supply.
This housing boom defies the pessimists who claimed higher interest rates would stall the market. Instead, demand is surging as we head into the spring selling season, powered by the economic momentum of Trump’s policies.
This report joins a string of blockbuster economic data—booming jobs, soaring durable goods orders, and unstoppable consumer spending—proving that America’s economy is stronger than ever under President Trump’s leadership. The real economy is thriving, leaving the doubters and their cautious forecasts in the dust.
At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
