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 money should be used to build more social housing
@9PQJS5612mos12MO
No, but they should permanently abolish stamp duty for first-time homebuyers and raise the Lifetime ISA limit on home prices.
@B5BK6681mo1MO
The prospective home buyer should receive tax relief on their mortgage and certain savings and investments.
@B5988HJ2mos2MO
Yes, but with a clear focus on making homeownership accessible to low- and moderate-income first-time buyers, coupled with measures to increase the overall supply of affordable housing and regulate the housing market to prevent artificial inflation.
@B57KXXW2mos2MO
Yes, but house prices should be brought down using other methods like banning multi-property ownership
@B4HMK5K2mos2MO
There is no need to own a house. All housing and homes should be owned and operated by the government and handed to citizens as a basic human right?.
@9QLBZN812mos12MO
The Government (and Local Governments) should build more publicly owned housing, with a goal to buy-back most or all of ex-council properties
@9QKD4D212mos12MO
Yes, but more effort should be put into building affordable homes which in time would remove the need for subsidies.
