#FTHB
All FTHB programs and down payment assistance programs have been ended overnight.

If homeownership didn’t matter, they wouldn’t throw up intentional road blocks.

It’s time to face the fact that all mortgages are a scam in the first place. You do not own your home with a mortgage, the bank does. Even with a 30 year mortgage, if you’re the median age of FTHB in America, you’d be 68 when you paid it off.

Hi, risk analyst at a bank here. Banks already buy treasuries from the treasury though? Forcing them to do it at a 1% rate, the immediate consequence would be less lending for consumers as they have less money to lend out for FTHB, cars, etc.

Think the general gist is right, but wrong approach.

Your post literally says “perfect candidate.” Kamala was pretty far left, massive help for FTHB, paying family members for caregiving, building on green energy initiatives created by the infrastructure act. We would have kept the ACA, Medicaid, SNAP, USAID funding. We would have moved forward.

Had an FTHB go under contract this morning.

The chaos is the point.

Emailed the realtor to start the FTHB process - it's feeling real now, ay Dios mio...

Why I chose Durham over CH for my home buying search - the median home price & the typical (deferred) maintenance level of the inventory was not feasible for a 'younger' FTHB

BS.. Oh, you mean how Harris had plans to lower grocery prices? Offer FTHB 25k for purchases, etc.. Or wasn't ranting about dogs and cats being eaten by immigrants 🙄

She wasn't unlikable she was a POC and a woman..

I am guessing you didn't bother to vote. You already know my feelings on that.

He's the only politician I have seen saying anything remotely like this. sounds more warning to home owners relying on equity to temper their expectations vs telling future FTHB to wait for incomes to go up. NO politician is going to admit we're in for a housing crash until it's clear to everyone.
Less than impressed w our new housing minister facing this question, but Carney indeed knows. Listen to entire answer or this quote at 23:34 "core issue for younger Canadians, for all Canadians is that the level of house prices goes down relative to their incomes, so the affordability goes up."

Also of note a lot of grants allow you to obtain additional assistance, and you can stack. So if your city also offers fthb assistance and you qualify, you can apply with them and have a habitat for humanity grant. It can help a lot for people who don't have a down payment.

My husband and I were very much looking forward to the 25K FTHB help. There's no affordable housing where I live. Our rent equals the mortgage of a 300K house. We can't save for anything. She was going to build houses too. She was the one that talked about the housing crisis.

Feds have released their GST New Housing Rebate for first-time home buyers. The costing looks *really* off. They say it'll cost 3.9B/5 years. The PBO says 1.9B.

I think the PBO is more likely to be right on this one. Not that many FTHB buying new homes.

On social media, still some scumbag Realtors trying to FOMO naive FTHB by claiming immigrants w sacs of cash ready to come to buy everything up

Just want to to scare ppl saving for their first home into buying one of those awful speculator condos killing investors rn that nobody wants as homes 💸

the FTHB savings account is a double edged sword. Yes, it helps people save money, but if there's more money available by someone to offer to buy a home without having increased the supply of homes to be sold, all we've done is increased the price of what available homes will go for.

There are a lot of programs for FTHB that give 3 year 5% forgivable assistance the problem is taxes and insurance not the rate

The working class. It wasn’t. Her speaking points focused on grants for FTHB, abortion, and ..freedom? Americans cared about jobs, economy, and change. An acting VP in an administration they were feeling hardship under that wasn’t selling change isn’t a winning platform. The average American has 3/🧵

It's especially sad for more recent FTHB buyers who likely paid a premium bc of the RE bubble but didn't have the benefit of underpaying w lower condo fees for all those preceding years.

Condos are not completely safe from the same kinds of big bills house owners can get, in any condo tuck away $

Wonder how many strata owners actually save like this.

Considering how often I've heard "in a house you need save money for a new roof etc instead of paying a strata fee each month" It's gotta be a small %

Cash calls happen in all types of homes. www.deeded.ca/blog/the-4-2...

Would’ve been interesting to segment buyers between FTHB and current owners. Current owners are by far the most emotional and anchored to their artificial sub-4.5 rate
February 5, 2026 at 8:52 PM
Being a FTHB didn’t reduce certain fees for me 😭 I was like why is it $700 to request a piece of paper. (Condo docs).
