These subsidies are financial aids from the government to help individuals purchase their first home, making homeownership more accessible. Proponents argue that it helps people afford their first home and promotes homeownership. Opponents argue that it distorts the housing market and could lead to higher prices.

@9ZF8CW55mos5MO
yes, as long as we actively address other factors such as limiting tax breaks on investment properties
@9WCPZ635mos5MO
will only add to house price increases, de-incentivise investment housing as the primary investment choice for Australians instead by ending negative gearing and tax breaks for people who own multiple properties.
@9SWQZYB7mos7MO
Yes, first time home buyers need a leg up over investors
@9PJWSBT10mos10MO
No it should be there labour to purchase their home not our money
@B4BT64D1 day1D
Yes, but only for buyers that have proven that they need the money, as many people are just irresponsible with money and don't deserve any subsidies.
@B49Q8B34 days4D
Yes, and the blanket rule they have for the entry price is rubbish. For example, someone living in a city will struggle to find property listed at a price that gives them access to first home buyers schemes.
@B3DXTK91mo1MO
And provide backpayment to recent first home buyers who have had to pay higher stamp duty due to entry level homes surpassing the state thresholds for stamp duty exemption.
@B2XTMXT2mos2MO
No because all it has done is cause builders to increase the cost of their homes and developments by the same amount or more
