Can we STOP inflating the bubble?!?

Flexo · 5 months ago

When the bubble stopped inflating, the real estate industry ground to a halt. There is probably a balance somewhere we must find, and the Senators pushing this change feel the $8,000 tax credit wasn't enough to find that balance. I don't know if I agree with them, but that's just my opinion as a potential first-time buyer who would like prices to remain low for my own satisfaction (until right after I buy, of course).

How dare congress spend my hard-earned tax dollars so wastefully! They must be stopped! After I get my $15,000 tax credit, though. No use being hasty.

Any word on if they will extend it past Dec 1st? I'm not buying a house until May 2010 :0(

I think we need to learn our lesson from the current financial downturn caused by bubble in hosuing..lets not go down the same road again.

Can't wait to sell my house to my neighbor and vice versa. We each get $15,000 and don't have to move.

Wouldn’t it be better to encourage behavior that really creates value instead of encouraging people to move house more often? Is people moving house even a good thing? Even if the credit stays restricted to first-time homebuyers, it’s taking customers from people who rent their property.

15,000 would help alot and this time only sell to people who have good credit .dont give a loan for 300,000 to a guy making 35,000 year because hes a minority lol
