Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has had strong words about illegal immigration. He’s calling for a new border wall that would be paid for by Mexico. He’s also said it would make sense to deport the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants currently in the U.S.

So if Trump were to win the presidency this November and was able to implement those plans, how could that affect the Phoenix area’s housing market?

Catherine Reagor is the senior real estate journalist for The Arizona Republic and azcentral.com. She wrote a column about the reaction she got from housing experts around the Valley to Trump’s proposals.
