President Trump proposes 50-year mortgages to aid first-time homebuyers struggling with rising prices. With high home costs, many can’t afford 10% down payments. A 50-year mortgage on a $500,000 home at 6% interest could reduce monthly payments by $330, offering financial relief for essentials. Critics argue it promotes lifetime debt, but it’s seen as a wealth-building tool.

50-year mortgages provide financial leverage, controlling a $500,000 asset for less while benefiting from property appreciation.
