No, the money should be used to build more social housing

Housing market needs reforming for all, not just first time buyers. Government needs to address the systemic issues around buying a home
@9NGXPVV4 days4D
they should force the banks and building societies to refresh their lending criteria. People are able to rent at a high cost but not take out a mortgage that would reduce their outgoings. This should not be allowed to continue.
@9NFPBYT5 days5D
No, they should address systemic causes of overinflated property values due to being considered a commodity over a right to a permanent residence
@9N92YL21wk1W
No, the government should seek to lower the cost of homes in general / reform the housing market, rather than perpetuate the status quo.
@9N5GPRM1wk1W
Yes, but depends on age, current living situation, marital status, annual income, and what house they're looking at. with houses under a certain price.
