It seems that 2025 has already been...well, a lot. And if you're thinking about buying property this year, the plot only thickens: Many states are enacting new real estate laws that will likely play a major role in how dwellers approach buying, selling, and even renting. While the news of changes isn't exactly shocking, as President Donald Trump planned to eliminate "unnecessary" regulations shortly after winning the 2024 election, you'll want to know how they affect you. "A new administration always has an impact on the confidence or lack thereof that people have in the real estate market and their timing of when you buy or sell," says McKenzie Ryan, real estate agent and founder of her eponymous team at Douglas Elliman. "Right now, there is naturally an air of uncertainty as we wait to understand what Trumps priorities are that may impact real estate before making any big moves." However, Ryan says that the current state of the real estate market didn't just start with the new year or the new administration. "It has been a long journey of uncertainty since 2020," she reasoned. So what changes can we expect for the rest of 2025? Read on to learn more about the real estate trends that we're already seeing surging across the country.Related StoriesA Surge of Homes and ADUsLindaYolanda//Getty ImagesWith both housing shortages and the homeless crisis being incredibly prevalent problems across the country, simply seeing more affordable properties on the market will be a welcomed change for many. In California, there have been sweeping changes to Senate Bill 9, a law that enables affordable housing by permitting duplexes and lot splits on single-family residential lots. While the bill could once be restricted by vague terms and standards, an amendment clarifies that Senate Bill 9 projects can only be denied if they pose a public health or safety threat to tenants. Meanwhile, on the East Coast, amendments made to the City of Yes for Housing Opportunity initiative in New York City will make it easier to turn commercial buildings into residential spaces. Homeowners should also expect to see the rise of accessory dwelling units, or ADUs. Not only have states like Arizona and Nebraska established new regulations that allow ADUs on residential lots, but lawmakers in Texas are also trying to overturn ordinances that have limited or prohibited the use of ADUs. Between the rise of multifamily properties and ADUs, it may become easier to find more affordable options. Related StoryRefined Renter's Rights UCG//Getty ImagesOf course, buyers aren't the only ones who can benefit from the new real estate rules. According to Ryan, regulations like the Fair Chance Housing Act in New York City will make 2025 a solid year to rent, too. "With this new act, landlords are limited in their ability to consider an applicant's criminal history, and they are only allowed to conduct a criminal background check after an offer of housing has been made," she explains. Not only can this new ordinance make it possible for landlords to cultivate a dynamic, diverse neighborhood, but it may also affect real estate investors who rent out their properties. "They will need to comply with these new regulations which may impact their decision to rent or influence how they manage rental properties overall," Ryan addsAnother win for renters? Thanks to the FARE Act in New York City, landlords will not be able to pass brokerage fees onto potential tenants. More Mansion Taxes Barry Winiker//Getty ImagesThough mansion taxes have already rocked Los Angeles, this pricey phenomenon seems to be making its way across the United States. Reports claim that as of early January 2025, many other states like New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois's Evanston enclave, and the District of Columbia will also have mansion taxes. Need a refresher on mansion taxes? In Los Angeles, an additional four percent tax will be imposed on properties that are purchased for $5 million or more. While the exact percentage will certainly vary from state to stateor city to cityone thing's for sure: Those fancier digs will come at a price.More Affordable Mortgages (Maybe)Martin Barraud//Getty ImagesRyan shares that there's currently a lot of industry buzz regarding whether the new administration will keep interest rates low. "It could continue to stimulate the housing market by making mortgages more affordable," she said. "Regardless of where interest rates arewhether theyre upgrading or downgradingit is more normalized for people to move whenever, even if they have to pay more per month."

Apple on Monday released iOS 18.3.1 to the public, two weeks after the release of iOS 18.3. The company says iOS 18.3.1 and iPadOS 18.3.1 include important bug fixes and security updates and now we know exactly which vulnerability todays updates fix.Details on vulnerability fixed with iOS 18.3.1In a security article published on Apples website, the company details the security patches included with iOS 18.3.1 and iPadOS 18.3.1. More specifically, the update fixes a vulnerability found in iOSs accessibility features that had been actively exploited by attackers.With this vulnerability, attackers with physical access to an iPhone or iPad could disable USB Restricted Mode on a locked device. For those unfamiliar, USB Restricted Mode is a feature that asks for the iPhone or iPads password to allow it to be connected to a computer or other device via USB. Bypassing this system allows attackers to access user data stored on the device.Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been exploited in an extremely sophisticated attack against specific targeted individuals, the company says.Keeping software updated is important to reduce the chances of being targeted by hackers and other attackers. Apple also released updates to macOS 15, visionOS 2, and watchOS 18 today but there are no details about security patches for these operating systems.On a related note, Apple has also released iOS 17.7.5 for some older devices with a fix for the same exploit. If you have a compatible iPhone or iPad, make sure you update iOS by going to Settings > General > Software Update.Add 9to5Mac to your Google News feed.

OpenAI and ShutSan Francisco's medical examiner ruled OpenAI whistleblower Suchir Balaji's death last year a suicide but the young man's family claims in a recent lawsuit that their own pathologist found differently.AsDecrypt and other outlets report, the 26-year-old whistleblower's parents, Poornima Ramarao and Balaji Ramamurthy, say the independent autopsy they commissioned suggests that the gunshot wound that killed their son was inconsistent with suicide building on claims they've been making since November that their son was murdered rather than having taken his own life.In a lawsuit filed against San Francisco and its police department, the grieving parents are now accusing authorities of covering up foul play and demanding they release all files about Balaji's death."The lawsuit demands that the city, police department, and medical examiner release public documents withheld under the Public Records Act," the family's attorneyJoseph Goethals told Decrypt. If authorities fail to do so expediently, the lawyer said that he would seek a court order to force the issue.Just a month prior to his body being found in his apartment, the New York Times published a bold claim from the former OpenAI employee: that the company was, in spite of its half-baked insistence to the contrary, using "enormous amounts" of copyrighted materials without permission to train its models. Balaji knew this because he'd help gather said data before ChatGPT was released in November 2022.Since Balaji's death, the young tech genius' parents have fought for answers, and said they've been met with resistance from SFPD. Police told Ramarao that she couldn't see her son's body because the bullet that killed him had "destroyed" his face,she said but when independent pathologist Joseph Cohen examined the body, he discovered that that claim appeared to be false.During that second autopsy, Cohen deduced that the downward and slightly left-to-right trajectory of the single bullet that penetrated Balaji's brainstem would have been unusual for a suicide. He also found a contusion on the back of the young man's head, suggesting, per the suit, that he may have been struck before being shot.Thus far, authorities in San Francisco have been tight-lipped about the case because it's still open. According to a source with direct knowledge who spoke toFortune magazine, however, that silence may soon end when police and the city medical examiner's officerelease letters with "detailed facts" that provide more evidence that the young man killed himself.Throughout this debacle, Balaji's family hasn't pointed fingers at OpenAI or anyone else. Instead, the grieving parents are insisting that authorities fully investigate the matter and,hopefully, start to heal from this unimaginable tragedy.More on OpenAI: OpenAI Seems to Be Low Key PanickingShare This Article

Jackie Brown/Amazon Studios The Kids in the Hall (2022) Prime Video has resurrected The Kids in the Hall, the Emmy-nominated Canadian sketch comedy show that originally ran from 1988 to 1995. (By "resurrects," I mean the show literally exhumes members of the comedy troupe from a grave they were buried in at the end of the original show. That's just the beginning of the fun.) Follow the comedians as they freak out over mislabeled desserts, fight over imaginary love interests and write Earth's last fax. Be warned: Some of these sketches are highly NSFW.

Season 4 of The Boys picks up after the events of the first Gen V season. Amazon Studios Invincible (2021- ) For those who aren't a fan of cartoons, Invincible could be your converter, up there with other adult cartoons like BoJack Horseman and Rick and Morty.

Simmons, Invincible will engross you in its smart animated world. Amazon Studios The Boys (2019- ) The Boys stormed Amazon with its ultra-violent tale of antihero vigilantes seeking revenge against the world's most beloved superheroes.

With social commentary, black comedy and pops of gore, The Boys takes a thrilling and unapologetic step away from the family-friendly genre.

Settle in for a fascinating and well-made docuseries that spotlights the stories of former LuLaRoe retailers. Drama Prime Video Expats (2024- ) A new miniseries starring Nicole Kidman may be enough to guide your finger to the Play button, but you may also want to know that Expats comes from Lulu Wang, the director of the critically acclaimed 2019 comedy-drama The Farewell. In the six-episode show, Kidman portrays an American woman who's living in Hong Kong and is one of three characters linked by a sudden family tragedy.

Amazon Studios The Expanse (2015-2022) Amazon rescued The Expanse from the realm of canceled TV, bringing us up to six seasons. Thank goodness it did, because The Expanse is smart sci-fi with realistic characters, high production values and a dash of detective noir. Set in a future where humanity has colonized the Solar System, a conspiracy threatens to start a cold war between the largest powers. A band of antiheroes find themselves at the center. Look forward to more space western themes in the consistently excellent later seasons.

February 10, 20255 min readTrump Team Looks to Drastically Cut Weather and Climate AgencyMass layoffs at the U.S. climate and weather agency would have a ripple effect across the economy, say former NOAA officialsBy Scott Waldman & E&E News The NOAA Okeanos Explorer arriving in San Francisco, Calif. The ship is outfitted with tools needed to access the deep ocean and share data with researchers and the public. Paul Chinn/The San Francisco Chronicle via Getty ImagesCLIMATEWIRE | The Trump administration is looking to halve the NOAA workforce, say two former officials of the agency, a member of Congress and a congressional staff member.The draconian cut, they say which would reduce the number of NOAA employees from about 12,000 to 6,000 threatens to cripple an agency that provides climate and weather information across the U.S. economy."The goal is to just crush [it] with a hammer, hard blows, and shrink that federal workforce," said Craig McLean, who served as the assistant administrator of NOAA Research until he retired in 2022 after a 40-year career at the agency. "There really isn't any consideration about what the mission impact is."On supporting science journalismIf you're enjoying this article, consider supporting our award-winning journalism by subscribing.

It manages the nations fisheries. Its free streams of data are widely used by scientists, governments and businesses around the globe. NOAA also is one of the worlds leading climate science agencies, which has long made it a target for conservatives and the fossil fuel industry.The changes under consideration suggest the Trump team may be following the Project 2025 conservative policy proposal for NOAA. The document, written as a playbook for a second Trump administration, calls for NOAA to be broken up and downsized largely because of its climate change research.The looming cuts to NOAA's workforce are being communicated to agency staff verbally, say congressional sources and former NOAA officials. That's intended to avoid putting it in a written memo or email that can be leaked.But the officials cautioned that while the proposal to halve the workforce has been discussed it also could be an intimidation tactic to pressure more employees to take up the administration's offer to resign early, which expires Monday.The proposal also calls for a 30 percent reduction in NOAA's budget.McLean said mass cuts at the agency would have a ripple effect across the U.S. economy.NOAA conducts ground-breaking climate research but it also provides invaluable information to a variety of U.S. business interests, he said. McLean said NOAA's products benefit the finance community, the reinsurers, real estate, transportation, agriculture and all these different industries. It also helps the oil and gas sector.Losing that data or even compromising it because of staff shortages would be devastating, he said.The products that NOAA generates are not just so that I know whether my tractor is going to get wet tomorrow and I got to cover it before I plow the field, but what should I be planting next year, and what is this coming season going to do for me, he said. All that stuff is all based on NOAA outlooks, forecasts, oceanography and atmospheric sciences.McLean was demoted from his position as acting chief scientist at NOAA in the first Trump administration after he launched an investigation into senior NOAA officials following the "Sharpiegate" scandal. His inquiry was to examine whether they adhered to proper scientific integrity rules.President Donald Trump referencing a chart as he talks with reporters after receiving a briefing on Hurricane Dorian in the Oval Office of the White House on Sept. 4, 2019.Chip Somodevilla/Getty ImagesThat scandal, which involved Trump's current nominee to run NOAA, was when Trump used a marker on a hurricane map to publicly support his false claims that a hurricane was going to devastate a swath of the South that was not actually under threat.Climate and weather are key pillars of NOAA, but the agency also plays a significant role in managing the nations commercial fisheries, which at times has pitted the agency against the energy industry.That includes a fight to block oil and gas drilling in a swath of the Gulf of Mexico that threatened the endangered Rice's whale. That legal battle is still winding its way through the courts, though it's unlikely the Trump administration will continue to support the suit.NOAA also has repeatedly debunked Trumps false claim that whales were dying as a result of the installation of offshore wind turbines.The desire to carve up NOAA as outlined in Project 2025 isn't shared across Trump world. NOAA is part of the Commerce Department, and Howard Lutnick, Trump's pick to head the department, pledged during his confirmation hearing not to break up the agency.Neither the White House nor NOAA officials responded to a request for comment.On Friday, House Natural Resources ranking member Jared Huffman (D-Calif.) called for an investigation into what he described as the "illegal actions" of the so-called Department of Government Efficiency, a quasi-official auditing team being run by Trump ally and tech mogul Elon Musk. In particular, he called for a probe into any plans to cut staffing levels in half.DOGE representatives have fanned across the federal government in an effort to identify fraud and waste, or programs that don't align with the priorities of the new Trump administration. The group in particular has targeted programs that promote diversity, equity and inclusion.DOGE officials last week visited NOAA headquarters in Silver Spring, Maryland. DOGE officials did not respond to a request for comment.In addition to his calls for a broader probe into DOGE, Huffman wants an examination of the potential conflicts of interest between Elon Musks companies, including SpaceX and Starlink, and the mission and activities of NOAA.SpaceX launched a NOAA weather and climate satellite in June.The Trump administration is deploying a multipronged approach to remove as many federal employees as possible. Last week, the Office of Personnel and Management issued a memo that requires every agency to submit a list of all employees who received less than a 'fully successful' performance rating in the past three years.Career officials at multiple agencies, including NOAA, now are being targeted as part of a broader plan to root out those who are harder to fire because of government and union protections.Its part of the Project 2025 conservative policy playbook that created a new classification for federal employees known as Schedule F, which makes it easier for them to be dismissed and replaced by those loyal to Trump.Project 2025 may offer a road map to the administrations plans for NOAA. It called for NOAA to be dismantled and said the preponderance of its climate-change research should be disbanded.Under the plan, National Weather Service data would be commercialized. The National Hurricane Center, which tracks the effects of climate change on extreme storms, would be forced to issue reports that are presented neutrally, without adjustments intended to support any one side in the climate debate.Already, some NOAA scientific studies have been canceled and staff who worked on diversity, equity and inclusion have been put on leave. DOGE members have been connected to internal systems and are likely monitoring communications within the agency, said Andrew Rosenberg, who served as a senior official at NOAA during the Clinton administration.The speed in which NOAA is now being threatened means that critical services are at risk of going offline, he said. And key employees could be fired before there's time to challenge the legality of such a move.The Musk approach is, Hey, I'll break it and if somebody says afterwards you shouldn't have broken that, I'll say, oops, Rosenberg said. Once they destroy the agencies, they're not going to be able to put them back together again, no matter what a judge says.Reprinted from E&E News with permission from POLITICO, LLC. Copyright 2025.
