Claimant: JD Vance (R)


Claim: The price of a new home doubled under President Biden.


Rating: FALSE


Explanation: FactCheck.org found new home prices rose about 21% between 2021–2025, far below a doubling. Broader housing indexes show growth of 30–37%. Vance appears to conflate rising mortgage rates with literal home price increases.
