Good article - except for the part that suggests the US should pay 20% down payment for renters to become homeowners. If that's the case, they should pay me back for the 20% I saved & put down on my house.,

Thanks for the overall comments on my article.. Keep in mind that without down payment help on a sound loan, all that is left is an easy money loan with just a little or no down. We saw what happened when those kinds of loans failed.

Just another person who wants to be generous with other people's money.
Only part I agreed with was the part about the wholesale sale of properties to keep individuals from buying houses.

So what is your solution? Easy money no money down loans that fail?
The down payment is the problem with housing that is otherwise extremely affordable.
