Harris to propose up to $25K in down-payment support for 1st-time homebuyers
It's part of her economic agenda she will unveil Friday, her campaign says.
It would help but I'm not sure if that's the right way to handle housing prices.
This is weird, I've already made a down payment and thus won't benefit from it, but I still want it to happen for the benefit of my peers. Strange how that happens.
It won't help us outside of maybe the first week of implementation, and that's being generous. By this time next week people will have gamed out a scheme to legally eat that money and expect all down payments to be n+25k.
That's a fucking stupid idea. Stop corporate ownership of single family homes.
If you bought your first home in 2007, you may really hate this idea
Meh, everyone I know that bought their homes at the peak of that bubble have tripled their value already.
Noooo, that will only cause the prices to go up!
Well shit! This sure would have been nice last year. Will there be any retroactive measures?
