    A. Houses will likely become more expensive as a result of the announcement.
    Explanation

    sellers to raise their prices in expectation of the greatly increased demand and the long
    time it takes to build new housing. It becomes a “sellers’ market” and the many buyers
    will have to compete for the few houses available.
