Government can’t pay for it because government produces nothing. Non-first time homebuyers will be the one paying for it through higher rates, subsidizing higher risk first time buyers.

Sounds good until you realize non first time home buyers will get higher rates to make up the difference. Sounds like redistribution to me!

I appreciate your commitment to trying to help young people buy homes. However, I think this policy is misguided. The fundamental problem has been the artificial buoyancy of home prices over the past several decades due to government policy. Money printing, Fannie and Freddie, and the general mortgage lending environment all stem from this underlying agenda to keep home prices high. We need to unleash the vibrancy of the construction and real estate development industries by reducing ridiculous regulations on them, especially counterproductive nitpicking zoning regulations. If supply is greatly expanded, there will be downward pressure on prices and new homeowners will be able to afford a home.

Didn't billionaires become $4 trillion wealthier during the pandemic, while the middle class lost $4 trillion? That's an absolutely insane statistic that doesn't get talked about enough...

Housing is becoming increasingly unaffordable in the US as housing prices rise faster than income when adjusted by inflation. In my opinion we need to return to sound monetary policy, reduce spending drastically and reduce taxes for everyone. Its not going to be easy to fix.

Why not make it against the law for private equity firms to buy up all these single-family houses. If there was more of a supply, the price of housing would come down and there would be a surplus if we had not let all these private equity firms buy up 80% of the houses that were sold.

If you have a longer-term mortgage, you can make smaller payments to start. That means you can buy your first home sooner. Starting August 1, more first-time homebuyers will have that option.

Starting today, we are lowering FHA mortgage insurance payments by nearly 40% for all new homebuyers. That means millions of families will save on average $800 per a year.

Peter Dutton fails to answer how his policy of allowing first home buyers to deduct mortgage payments will decrease the cost of buying a first home, when economists have in fact said it will increase prices in that category. (Most Notably, Saul Eslake and Peter Tulip.) #auspol

Student loans are a debt trap that most Americans can never repay This woman took out $120,000 of student loans. The student loans debt started accruing interest immediately By the time she finished school 4 years later she had already accrued $50,000 in interest “So when I started my repayment, I had $170,000 of private student loans due — that's something I didn't know, and I think you should know too if you're thinking about taking out private student loans, because they're predatory as f*ck” People don’t understand that at just 10-12% APR which is common for private loans, on $120k over 4 years you will accrue about $40k–$60k+ in interest before any payments Federal student loans will typically give you a grace perished but private loans typically won’t A lot of people will just make minimum payments and by doing this your balance really never moves. They’re a debt trap

If you’re a renter, the Coalition’s ‘mortgage tax’ plan will get you no closer to a home of your own. And it won’t help a single person to save for a deposit. Labor wants to make it easier for you to buy. The Coalition wants you to help pay off someone else’s mortgage.

American breaks down how much it now costs to live in Southern California per month - Bought a home for $625k, her monthly payment is $5,082 a month - Electric is $400.29 - Gas bill is $119.21 - Frontier Internet is $89.99 - Waste Management $138 (It’s for 3 months. So for one month it comes out to $46.31) - Work van cost $1,200 a month - Personal truck $1,200 a Month - Motorcycle, $450 - Vehicle insurance $750 a month “Making our grand total $9,997.01 a month to live in Southern California” (-$500 if you remove the extra $500 they pay on the home mortgage) For reference her home was purchased for $625k. The average home price in Southern California has risen to $875,128 - Meaning your new average mortgage payment would be $5,974.42 - Because interest rates are so high, after 30 years you would have paid $2,238,304 for your home

POILIEVRE: When I came out of high school, it was taken for granted that if you got a job, you could pay off your student loans and have a down payment on a house by the time you were 25 or 26. Owning a home in your mid 20's was normal. And now? Your 40's. 🫠

BREAKING: White House officials are reportedly unhappy about 50-year mortgage idea praised by Trump. This is how stupid the idea is: A 50 year mortgage would have an interest rate that is around 1% higher than a 30-year loan. This means that a $500k loan would pay the following per month if the 30 year rate is 6.5%: 30 Year Loan at 6.5% = $3,160/month 50 Year Loan at 7.5% = $3,201/month So it would be higher monthly payments and you'd pay more than twice the total interest.

Trudeau’s costly carbon tax will cost farmers $1 billion by 2030. It will cost truckers $4 billion by 2030. And it will cost Canadians $30.5 billion by 2030. It couldn't be more clear, this Liberal government has a tax plan, not an environmental plan.

The median age of a first-time homebuyer is 40. A first-time homebuyer who takes out Donald Trump’s proposed 50-year mortgage would not finish paying it off until age 90. The average life expectancy in the United States is 78. In Donald Trump’s America, mortgages would have longer life expectancies than first-time homebuyers.

American just called to check on her student loans She was told she is accumulating $30 of interest a day, that’s $900 per month just in interest At $30 a day interest and her current payment the balance will ever only go up. This is criminal “So I could pay a thousand dollars a month and only 10% of that is going to my principal. And there is no option for me, according to her, to pay like each payment part of the principal, part of the interest. No, it all goes towards interest until you have no interest left, which will basically never happen. As I'm occurring. $30 a day, it doesn't take a day off” It’s not that Americans aren’t paying their student loans, it’s that they can literally NEVER pay them off with these predatory loan traps

We sat down with a James Colvin who said the cost of living has skyrocketed. His first mortgage was $315 a month. Today, a one bedroom apartment in his town can cost over $1,000 a month. His message was simple: ✓ Make it easier to own a home and allow Americans to build more. ✓ Cut the red tape holding back small businesses ✓ Start focusing on solutions that help people build a better future The part that stuck with us most wasn’t the numbers. It was what he said at the end: “Thank you for listening to me. Somebody finally listened.” Sometimes the first step toward solving a problem is simply hearing the people living through it.
