Assistance programs help homeowners who are at risk of losing their homes due to financial difficulties by providing financial support or restructuring loans. Proponents argue that it prevents people from losing their homes and stabilizes communities. Opponents argue that it encourages irresponsible borrowing and is unfair to those who pay their mortgages.

Renting should be a feasible, affordable and respectable option so that people are not over stretched into home owning.
@9NWR5H78mos8MO
Yes but this should be assessed on a case-by-case basis with assistance reflective of the circumstances.
@B2L7V7J1 day1D
Only if the home owners situation is dire to the point where they cannot afford any housing. If someone who earns for example, 300,000 a year is going to lose their home, then no, but if someone is on severe benefits and risks losing everything, then yes, they should be assisted,
@B27MWKB4wks4W
in certain circumstances, yes - provided there are appropriate thresholds in place. if a homeowner is at risk of losing a house where they have the means and opportunity to downsize or relocate then the government should not assist them.
@B26YXZC1mo1MO
Yes, government assistance is provided freely to large corporations and the wealthy whilst being nearly entirely inaccessible to the general population.
@9ZZPXLZ 2mos2MO
Yes, once per homeowner/co-owner if without another property or has property below the value of a semi-detached bungalow.
@8SZTB3Z 6mos6MO
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.
@9QWDBPM7mos7MO
Yes, as long as they are in. a job (excluding of course extra circumstances such as they have a disability)
