I do think it can help those that are prepared and on the border of approval. But those that aren't it ain't gonna do shit.

Yeah, I don't think the idea is a total non-starter, but I'd definitely like some details. How will this be limited to ensure it's not being used by investors and house flippers? How will this be ramped down once the housing market settles to avoid it being permanently "priced in"? How will this be paid for and how much will it cost?

Unfortunately American political debates right now are more of a pissing contest about rally turnout than they are about actual policy details, because that's what sways the voters on the fence for some reason.

I started getting tons of calls because I was approved last year when she announced this. So if it can get me into something I want to know. But it just might be bullshit.
