Washington, DC housing market crashes as SWAMP GETS DRAINED and “Rich Men North of Richmond” cash in and flee to hide from Trump and DOGE

After milking the system for all it’s worth, literally, the Democrats and Liberals of Washington, DC are cashing in on their wealthy homes that were funded by cushy salaries, embezzlement schemes, and insider trading. The cockroaches of the fully Liberal city inside the 495 belt-way are selling their homes faster than DOGE can audit their financial records at whatever 3-letter agency they worked at the past 4 years. It's a mass sell-off, as Washington, DC, and its surrounding areas are experiencing a severe economic downturn, marked by a sharp increase in active home listings and jobless claims. According to the latest data from Bright MLS, a leading real estate service provider, the region's housing market is showing signs of distress, with active listings surging by an average of 22.8% compared to the same period last year. Get out before you drown or end up in prison, is the theme, but DOGE will still find you, after all, it’s run by the richest, likely smartest man on the planet. Just as promised, Trump is draining the swamp of all the swamp monsters, including the mouse jigglers who worked from home (if they worked at all) virtually, making $200,000 to $400,000 per year and living it up in 3-story houses worth a million or more. The "Drain the Swamp" (DOGE) initiative, which has led to the elimination of 275,000 federal jobs. This reduction in the federal workforce, coupled with elevated mortgage rates, has left many government employees scrambling to adjust to the private sector, often with little experience or marketable skills. Raj Namboothiry, senior vice president at Manpower North America, a workforce solutions company, told CNBC last week, "Jobless claims in DC will go higher, and definitely we'll be watching it very closely."

The housing market in Washington, DC, and surrounding counties in Northern Virginia and Maryland is facing unprecedented challenges. Falls Church City, Virginia, has seen a staggering 78.6% increase in active listings, followed by Fairfax City with a 68.8% jump, Alexandria City with a 50.5% increase, and Montgomery County, Maryland, with a 33.5% uptick. These markets are heavily reliant on federal workers, many of whom have spent their careers in the government and now face the daunting task of transitioning to the private sector. The timing of these market changes is particularly concerning, as borrowing costs remain at elevated levels. Data from Bright MLS' T3 Home Demand Index shows that the February housing market is currently "Slow" and/or "limited." This trend coincides with the elimination of 275,000 federal jobs, including 75,000 who accepted buyouts and 200,000 workers on probation. Labor Department figures indicate that 4,000 workers in DC have already filed for unemployment insurance, with many more expected to follow. The combination of a declining federal workforce and a softening housing market is expected to produce significant economic instabilities. Michael Hartnett, a senior strategist at Bank of America, commented on the situation, stating, "Washington, DC, recession begins." This economic downturn could have far-reaching consequences, particularly for the unaccountable federal bureaucracy that has long relied on taxpayer support. The financial situation in Maryland is particularly dire, with far-left Democratic lawmakers like Governor Wes Moore exacerbating the state's already precarious fiscal position. A large asset management company operating in the region warned that Maryland is on a crash course to a "deep recession," citing concerns over potential tax hikes and a lack of investment in the state's infrastructure. As the DC region grapples with the fallout from the "Drain the Swamp" initiative, it is clear that the economic landscape is shifting dramatically. The combination of a shrinking federal workforce, a struggling housing market, and looming economic uncertainties paints a bleak picture for the coming months. While the long-term implications of these changes remain to be seen, one thing is certain: the era of unchecked federal spending and unaccountable bureaucracy is coming to an end. As the region braces for an economic downturn, the question remains: will the federal government be able to adapt to the new reality, or will it be forced to undergo a fundamental transformation? The coming months will be crucial in determining the fate of the Washington, DC, region and its surrounding areas, as the "Drain the Swamp" initiative continues to reshape the economic landscape. For now, it is clear that the writing is on the wall: a recession in Washington, DC, is just beginning. Goodbye "Rich Men North of Richmond" and good riddance.
