    Wow, 2-4* whole months of payments on a 30 year mortgage, what an incentive! /s

      You don’t get it obviously.

      This helps people right on the cusp of being able to close on a house. 5k can make the difference in so many cases.

      Keep being stupid, stupid.

        Great for all 1-2 thousand of them. For the rest of us it means fuck all to take 5K off the top of a deposit on a 500K house, nor does it make it make sense for a landlord special “remodel” from a house flipper to cost as much as much as it does.

        Housing as an investment model is bullshit.
