A repeal is possible, but we would not build a purchase around it. Start with the mechanism, because the mechanism is what actually hits your budget. The 2017 tax law capped the deduction for combined state and local taxes, which lumps your state income tax and your property tax into one bucket. Congress has adjusted the cap since then and the figure is scheduled to keep changing, so confirm the current number with a tax professional rather than planning around anything you read online. The cap lands hardest on owners in high-income-tax, high-property-tax states, where a middle-income household can use up the entire cap on state income tax alone. Once that happens, the property tax bill is effectively non-deductible. On repeal, the politics are sticky. The states hurt most by the cap lean one direction politically, and lifting the cap mostly benefits higher earners, which makes a clean, revenue-neutral repeal a hard vote to assemble. Plausible, far from certain, and on nobody's schedule. For your own planning, work from the rules as they stand today and let any repeal be a pleasant surprise. Run your specific situation past a tax professional. This is general information, not tax advice.
