Renting should be a feasible, affordable and respectable option so that people are not over stretched into home owning.
@9NWR5H71yr1Y
Yes but this should be assessed on a case-by-case basis with assistance reflective of the circumstances.
@B6KNRDR3 days3D
There should be programs or policies in place to ensure a smooth process, but it’s either up to the homeowner to manage their own finances, or their employer if they’ve not been paying them fairly. Perhaps private charities could provide assistance.
@9ZZPXLZ 9mos9MO
Yes, once per homeowner/co-owner if without another property or has property below the value of a semi-detached bungalow.
@8SZTB3Z 1yr1Y
People who have gambled upon expensive properties which they could have never afforded in the first place deserve no sympathy. People in the mainstream and the lower end of the economy should be offered support so that they do not become homeless.
@9QWDBPM1yr1Y
Yes, as long as they are in. a job (excluding of course extra circumstances such as they have a disability)
@9QR2TCS1yr1Y
No, unless its due to a sudden health issue, whoch the government should give a choice for them to sell their home and move to social housing or sell their home to a housing organisation.
@9QLQ7PD 1yr1Y
Depending on the circumstance but in this current financial climate yes as its the governments fault we are in a economic crisis whereby people are struggling basic necessities so if there house is not excessive to their requirements then yes if they are trying to live within their means then yes they should help
