These subsidies are financial aids from the government to help individuals purchase their first home, making homeownership more accessible. Proponents argue that it helps people afford their first home and promotes homeownership. Opponents argue that it distorts the housing market and could lead to higher prices.

No, the government should focus on lowering interest rates and inflation, which would lower the cost of home buying for first time buyers.
@9RSDVGN11mos11MO
No, but they should incentivize construction of more housing and residential buildings to reduce prices.
@9RZY5CM11mos11MO
I'd rather the government make landlords illegal and take over all their properties. And charge a much lower amount to rent to non-homeowners.
@B5X32CW1wk1W
if someone has served in the military then they can use their GI bill to put 0% down on a home. Other than that no
@B5LDN7M1mo1MO
Subsidies will force people into the same area for their whole life. Instead, focus should be put on reducing the overall cost of houses through decreasing inflation.
@7WDP6PT 4mos4MO
Yes, this would help ease the burden of bills of the first time home buyer and make people want to get a house as well
@9RFDC4V11mos11MO
Depends on income and the type of house being developed. If it is for purely ownership of the house to be used by the owner and used as the primary residence by the family then yes it should be subsidized.
@B5XNDG75 days5D
I would prefer public housing options and housing subsidies for low income renters rather than homebuyers bc they are already in a much better financially stable situation and we should help those at the bottom who really need help getting on their feet or making ends meet rather than those in the middle or top of our socioeconomic strata
