leaving many new buyers underwater on their mortgage


How would it impact them before they try to sell it or get an additional loan on it?

If the results are what is claimed how could it not tank the existing home market?

Only if straight piped. You can cut off cat and dpf filter and leave muffler and it’s not that bad. Also increases fuel mileage and engine life.

Selling a home where you owe more on the mortgage than what you can sell it for is uncharted territory for me. But this would be a certainty if homes did in fact contract in value by 30%+

so cutting investment potential in half is good now?

If that’s the case why even buy a house?

If the cost to purchase a new home is 30% less surely you can imagine what this would do to existing home valuations in the same zip code

If you're looking at your house as an investment then maybe that's your problem

It should never be looked at as an investment vehicle. It's a place to live.

Most wouldn't obviously. But what if your career dictates that you need to relocate?

It depends on what regulations he wants cut.

We don't need crooked builders building deathtraps.

What happened to starter homes?

Now most young couples buy a starter home that is bigger and nicer than the homes their parents live in.

Agree. A basic home should be affordable for anyone who wants it.

There are good reasons to own a home instead of rent even if it doesn’t go up in value.

1)locked in housing cost payment same (ok taxes and insurance do change) today as 30 years from now.

2)not having to move frequently(moving from place to place sucks).

3)even if it’s only worth what you originally paid, at the end you have that much equity/value. At the end of 30 years paying rent you have 0.

Maybe you need to think about things more

Houses aren't investments. They're places to live. Some people get lucky and make money off of the transaction when they move.

How many situations like that would it take to "crash the market"?

Most starter homes that exist today are in someone's rental portfolio.

I'm not sure how to downvote your post without giving him credit for this proposal. Bottom line, you suck and he knows so much more than idiots like yourself when it comes to getting shite done
