Housing costs are a top voter issue in swing states like Nevada and beyond.

Kamala Harris and Donald Trump contrast sharply on their policies in response.

Both would use federal land to allow new housing projects and streamline permitting rules.

But when it comes to encouraging zoning changes that might open the door to construction, Trump has implied limits to his support for deregulation.

Some experts criticize Ms. Harris ’ down payment assistance for first -time buyers.

Others point out that Mr. Trump ’s planned deportations could deprive employers, including home builders, of their most sought-after corps of workers.

“The good news is Trump is saying, Hey, we need housing!” says Ben Metcalf .
