Answer:

The answer is: increase the GDP by $41,000

Explanation:

Money paid for renting a house is included under housing services and it represents 11.9% of the GDP (2017).

Housing services includes the rent paid and the utilities. But more importantly, they also include "imputed rent" which is the rent a homeowner should have paid for renting his house.
