Campaigning in Raleigh, Harris proposes $25,000 towards first time home buyers down payments

While campaigning in Raleigh Friday, Vice President Kamala Harris said a goal of her economic plan if she becomes president is to make it easier to afford a home.

[JP-sfer]

There is no such thing as FREE federal money for down payments. Its ALL taxpayer funded!

[susannelson-ed]

This is such a joke. They will add 25, 000 to the price when they sell home, and it just increases mortgage payment for new owner.

[BrandonEdwardsOfficial]

Yeah until they raise the price on the homes $25k in the us hahaha

[jtr]

When you print money then you have inflation if you love the last 3.5 years you going to love Kamala high inflation.

[epicnoodles]

This will cause the real estate price inflated even more.

[JoseEstrada-syec]

Please people don't fall for this crap.

[sues]

I don't want my tax dollars paying for someone else's house! Get your own money for that! This woman will bankrupt this nation.

[MyerShift]

Bribing fiscally irresponsible people with MY tax money?! Absolutely not

[vincentbugalia]

There will always be enough naive people to believe anything.

[Guitarkwondo]

Lol as someone who works in mortgage, down payment is tacked on as interest. No such thing as free money, its “assistance” by having a much higher monthly payment

[craigdarby]

Well if I'm selling a house, I gonna raise the price 25k .

[DesilateLamprophony]

WE are $35.14 TRILLION dollars in debt.

Explain to me where that $25k is coming from? It will go straight to a mortgage bank and we will all pay increased taxes for it.

$35.14 Trillion... I love this country but this requires a multi-trillion dollar loan from The Federal Reserve.

The Fed Reserve is a PRIVATE BANK. Its not a governmeng org, its a private corporation. Our taxes pay them a huge interest rate to print our money and loan our money to us.

We The People do not want to take out another $2+ Trillion $ loan just to give it directly to the banks....


We need locked in 3% APR Mortgages. That's the only way. Guaranteed missed payment forgiveness up to 90 days would be the American thing to do.

[Thunder_Dome]

What else is she prepared to offer me? What about a year of car payments too? I could also use free student loan payments. I also believe I'm entitled to $10k in food payments too.

[Johnfulkan]

WTF! Who is footing that bills?
I drove old Honda civic first 10 years after college and paid off my house- to fund lazy good for nothing losers?

[a.b.]

That’s awesome. I’m selling my house next year. If this is put into law I’ll sell my house for $25, 000 more 👏👏

[Archangel]

The $25, 000 is only a payment on the interest .The principal will go up.

[mjs]

Welp, home prices just went up $25, 000. Thanks 🐪 la

[justthinking]

She should have given that economic proposal in front of a dumpster that is on fire to show what will happen if she is elected

[janeg]

It is AMAZING that all of the Big 3 Love KH!! Obviously could care less about America becoming Venezuela! Just look at the crumbly big cities 😖

People who cannot afford to go to college have to pay off the student loans of those who do, and now people who cannot afford to buy a home have to pay the downpayments of those who can.
